I've noticed one annoying feature of Calc -- it apparently cannot support the
use of a dash (ie, a hyphen) in worksheet names. Any '-' in an Excel worksheet
name has been converted by Calc to '_'. I NEVER use the underscore, and I'm
really disappointed with this constraint. Does anybody know why the constraint
exists?
Also disappointed that F4 does not repeat the preceding command as happens in Excel -- that's a shortcut that I use a lot, and it is much slower to have to use Ctrl Shift Y.

Please reply only to the list, so that all may benefit.
You can change the keyboard shortcut for "Repeat Action" as follows:
1) Click on Tools - Customise...
2) Select the Keyboard tab
3) Decide whether you want this shortcut to be valid just for Calc or in
all Openoffice applications by selecting the appropriate button at top
right.
4) In the top selection box, select the key you want to use for "Repeat"
(I use F5. You could use F4 if you don't mind losing the shortcut to
Data Sources - you would then have to use the menu View-Data Sources
instead)
5) In the bottom selection boxes, select Edit in the Category section
and Repeat in the Fuction section.
6) Click modify, then OK.
Should be all done.
You can set up keyboard shortcuts for all sorts of actions in the same way.
Hope that helps.
