My OpenOffice Calc (2.0.2) is displaying an annoying trait (which also
arose in a previous version):
I have a spreadsheet with 'AutoCorrect--Capitalize first letter of every
sentence' turned off. But every once in a while it reverts back to doing
auto-capitalization, and the little M$Office-like creature appears in
the lower right corner.
so you switch off this setting in the UI, and some day later it is
switched on again?
Did someone perform an update of OOo? This should not reset settings,
but then...
Some cron job restoring system settings?
Another user working at your desk?
A macro bound to that document - have a look at "Tools - Macros -
Organize Macros - OOo Macros" and click the document in the left list box.
I'm trying to reproduce the effect and I can't. I thought maybe it had
to do with OpenOffice doing a restore on this document when I opened it
this morning--it seems to do that sometimes, even if the document that
was open when the computer shut down (without separately closing
OpenOffice) didn't have any unsaved changes. But when I tried it just
now, with some unsaved changes in the spreadsheet, it didn't do a
restore on reopening but rather opened two copies of the spreadsheet,
one with the unsaved changes and one that appeared to be the last saved
version.
(Running Fedore Core 4 and OO2.0.2)
May be another OOo runs invisible in the background? Use ps to find and
kill -9 to get rid of it.
So maybe a bigger issue is that OOo doesn't seem to be consistent in how
it behaves under various circumstances. Sometimes it wants to do a
restore when opening and sometimes not. Sometimes it opens two copies of
a file. And shouldn't it be prompting me whether I want to save changes
when it's shutting down and there's a file open with unsaved changes?
Thanks. Long live OOo.

Uwe
