Thanks for the tip Joe. I signed up a long time ago, but never registered an
issue. The aspect of OOo2 is kind of murky at this point, because Linux
companies are shipping it with their latest releases, but I understand.

I agree, and I will see if I can get the developers to listen or hear their
reasoning as to why it changed.

To me this is an important feature. To my knowledge every release of
Microsoft Word has done it. Kword has it. AbiWord has it. I don't
understand why anyone would think of removing it from OpenOffice.org.

I'm going to look into it and see if there's some other approach their
advocating.
