OpenOffice.org does not use reveal codes. However there is a macro you
can use. I do not recall where to find it but it is mentioned frequently
on the [email protected] mailing list. The archives can be found at
http://www.openoffice.org/mail_list.html I have cc'the users list for
you and recommend you look there for better answers.

To help you in the future here are some resources:

For user level help, subscribe to [email protected] 
or use the newsgroup. You can find these listed at
http://www.openoffice.org/mail_list.html . If you send a message please
reply to the list and not directly to the person helping you. There are
literally thousands of people participating in the mailing list. Others
on the list can also help. 

Also, by replying to the mailing list, everyone benefits from the 
questions asked and the solutions provided.

You can of course join our helpful community mailing lists - there is no
cost and you are only required to restrict your emails to OpenOffice.org
topics:
      *  [email protected] : for OpenOffice.org questions, or when
        you feel comfortable, replies to questions;
      *  [email protected] : for OpenOffice.org general
        discussions; 
      *  [email protected] : for questions developing compiling
        OpenOffice.org; and
      *  [email protected] : for programming using the
        OpenOffice.org APIs.


There are several ways to participate in the mailing lists:
- subscribe to the users mailing list by emailing
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
  NOTE: that the [email protected] list has between 30 and 100 mails
per day - most of which are interesting responses to answers. If you
find that after awhile you are not comfortable with this volume of email
then you can always be removed from the mailing list by sending an email
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] AND DO NOT FORGET TO ALSO
REPLY TO THE CONFIRMATION EMAIL! You might also try the digest version
which bundles messages into groups by sending an email to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

- subscribe to the relevant newsserver gateway for the mailing list on
  news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.openoffice.questions (i.e. 
  [email protected])
news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.openoffice.general 
  (i.e. [email protected])

There is no compulsion to join the mailing list or the news server
gateway.

If you only want to read replies without interacting with the mailing
list then all you need to do is to use the websites :
 - http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.openoffice.questions or
 - http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/SummarizeList?listName=users

Simply look down in the list until you find your question. Often the
answers are shown following the question. Sometimes however the answers
get separated from the question, and show up separate in the list.
Simply start at your question and then move forward in the time
sequence.

The benefit of using this approach is, quite often the questions and
answers are grouped together - either by question (on gmane.org) or in
the order they were received (on the openoffice.org site).

There are also additional facilities where you can search for answers. 
Often the question you want to ask has already been raised, and the
answers are in the archive. You are encouraged to check the archives as
your question has probably been asked and answered previously : 
  http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/SearchList?listName=users ( note
that you will probably want to change from "search subject" to "search
body")

Many people check out the archives first, and then if they can't find an
answer, they ask the question in the mailing list.

NOTE: that all emails sent to the mailing list are public, including
your email address. We do have filters to prevent virus and spam going
to the mailing list, but this may not stop mail harvesters from getting
your email address for spam.

Other useful resources include :
 - http://user-faq.openoffice.org/#FAQ : where many questions that are 
        frequently asked have been answered or 
        http://documentation.openoffice.org/faqs/index.html 
 - http://documentation.openoffice.org : where you will find alot of
relevant documentation;
 - http://www.ooforum.org : an online help forum;
 - http://OOoDocs.org : extra documentaion;
 - http://OOExtras.org : has templates, artwork, labels, etc
 - http://OOoMacros.org : has extra macros and documentation
 - http://codesnippets.services.openoffice.org : has macro examples
