Hello,

I very recently downloaded the open office programs and am learning how to use them.

Which of the available programs from open office would be the equivalent of Microsoft Publisher, as I was previously using this and wish to use a similar format in the future.

I previously used Excel and wonder at this time why the "SUM" function does not work in open office.

No doubt I am doing something incorrect. Can you please direct me in these matters.

Thank-you kindly

Brian Charette

As regards the SUM function, one thing you might have wrong (especially if you have recently used Excel) is the separator between parameters of functions: in Excel this is a comma, but in Calc it is a semi-colon. If you have Calc's syntax wrong, no function reference with multiple parameters will work, of course.

I trust this helps.
