I opened a new writer file using a template. Then I used Insert >

The inserted file started on page 2. There is no page break that
would cause that, so how do I insert the file where I want it?

I tried a copy-and-paste and copy-and-paste-special, but still, it
starts on the second page. Also, this method would paste only the
first page of what was copied!

Thanks.
Any chance you can post your template to your website and let us know
the URL?  This is the likely source of your problem. In the meantime,
try doing the same thing with the original default template.

Seems to work Ok for me. OOo 2.01 on Gentoo Linux. Inserted a .txt and
a simple .odt file, both inserted on first page. Maybe worth checking
the file you were inserting?


That was my experience too. However, a little Skypeing with Pete showed
that the problem is with at least one of the files he was trying to
insert. When I examined the file it appeared to be one big html file.
Anyways, he now knows that something works.


I don't get that, Gerry. I unzipped the file and it has the same structure
as every other ODT file I've ever unzipped.

At least I know (?) that the template is not at fault.

Thanks.

I thought we had figured out that the template was the problem.
Specifically the table?

I wrote the above before you discovered it was the table.

But it brings up another question: how is it that the template (with table) was 
OK if the inserted file didn't have a table?
