But what format is the database in. Is it MS Access? or something else? I have not been able to find out how I edit records. When I try I get a message that says 'Error while connecting to data source. Error updating record.' I hen find I can not close down and have to go through ctrl-alt-delete, log off, back on and then I can close. Also after trying to modify some databases I find that record entries when highlighted have a dotted line round them instead of highlighting in blue. > Where am I gong wrong?

Spell check for OOo doesn't integrate with Outlook Express. Two completely different products. If you want details on spell checking within writer, reply to the list. /paul > Ian Robson > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
