No worries, even the so-called experts were beginners at some time ;) > hence do not feel able to contribut at this time. If you can tolerate a mass of emails (maybe 100+ per day) arriving in your inbox, subscribe to this mailing list and read the questions & answers posted. You will be surprised how much you will learn and it will not be too long before you will be able to contribute. To subscribe go to http://www.openoffice.org/mail_list.html#general and choose either a normal (individual emails) or a digest (messages grouped together in one email) subscription. Alternatively, you can read and post messages through your newsreader at: news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.openoffice.questions You can of course post directly to this list [email protected] asking to be cc'd in any reply. A few tips for when you post to this list: (1) put something meaningful in the subject line of your message (not just HEEELP!!! ;) (2) ask just one specific question per post (3) give as much detail as you can about your problem (even if you don't know the correct terminology) together with your operating system (eg. Windows XP) and your version of OOo (OpenOffice.org) > For instance I am unable to open email attachements. Sorry, not enough information here. What happens when you try to open email attachments?

OK, I would recommend that you take a look at some of the documents and information here: http://support.openoffice.org/index.html I would recommend the "Getting Started Guide" http://oooauthors.org/en/authors/userguide2/published/copy2_of_index_html you will find specific information about spell checking in chapter 5 which is available as a pdf document from: http://oooauthors.org/en/authors/userguide2/published/gettingstarted/published_final/0105GS-SettingUpOOo.pdf That chapter will also tell you how to install the Australian dictionary. > I would appreicate any help you could give You can always get lots of help and information from the above sources and this list. > Joy HTH Dave --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
