Thank you for your help.  I would have thought since Corel put out a Linux
version of WP, that there would be more similarity between the two. Oh well, I
will give your suggestions a try.

Hello,

I am new to Open Office and was looking for two functions that I know
that exist in Wordperfect.

Welcome Philippe!

1- WP has a Monthly Calendar tool, that you can set the starting
month/year and how many months to display. Then it create a monthly
calendar for that duration. I had a quick look in OOo, but didn't see
anything of that sort.  Is it available? is so where, or is it in the
works?

There is a monthly calendar add-on here:

It only does one month at a time though, so you may need another tool.

2- I do mail merges to create labels for my student note books.  I
was wondering if OOo supported the merge format files from WP?

I don't think you can use them directly. However you may be able to
import your data. Mail merge in Open Office is either ridiculously
easy or unbelievably difficult depending on who you are. I've found
labels are quite straight forward but others have reported problems.


Thank you

Philippe
