Glad it helped, Ben The way to get bugs/enhancements looked at is to use issuezilla. It is not the easiest process, but not too terrible if you approach it slowly and logically. 1 You need to register on the openoffice.org site. This is nothing to do with registering the software. 2 You will receive a confirmation email which you need to to reply to. 3 Go back to http://www.openoffice.org and login 4 Go to http://www.openoffice.org/issues/query.cgi and try to find an entry for an issue dealing with the same problem. On rare occasions you will be lucky enough to find one. The number of duplicate issues is a good demonstration of the difficulty of this process. If you do find one, consider voting for it. This is claimed to have some effect, but like many things in life, it is difficult to demonstrate. 5 Go to http://qa.openoffice.org/issue_handling/pre_submission.html and write up your bug, or RFE (request for enhancement). If you need to add an example document you have to finish your report, then go back to add the attachment. The documentation at http://qa.openoffice.org/issue_handling/pre_submission.html is actually quite good. It is the multiple options on the submission page that are frightening, though looking at it now it has been cleaned up a lot since I last used it. For example, I presume this would go under "Documentation," Then when you click through you can choose "Online Help" Don't worry about assigning it to anybody, that is not your problem.
