I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place for feature requests, but...
1. If it's possible, I'd like to suggest OOo provide the ability to
handle non-standard characters in field names for the purposes of
inserting and mail merges. At least one popular program (Filemaker Pro)
allows developers to include a range of characters in field names that
wouldn't be OK elsewhere. And those cause certain mail merge functions
to choke.
2. I'd like to see a much simpler method of suppressing blank lines in
mail merges. M$ Word uses a simple checkbox in the merge routine to do
this. It's so basic a function it should be simple and intuitive, not
abstruse and logically based.
Otherwise, kudos to any and all of you developers out there. You're
doing a great job and I'd offer to propose the change myself if I knew how.
And if there's a better place to submit feature requests, please let me
know.
Can you please report this in issuezilla ? ( http://openoffice.org -> "My
Pages" -> "Register", then when you receive a confirmation email, "Login" and
"File an issue" )
In this way the relevant developers will see your bug report / suggestion and
you will also see the progress of this feature / bug report if it is
accepted.
Thanks. Will do. I didn't think about Issuezilla b/c I think of that
as a bug report site whereas mine is probably better thought of as a
feature request.
