Your admonishments are well taken and I apologize if a statement I made tended
toward starting a "this sucks war". I assure you I had no such intent. I get
as tired of them as anybody even when I am just an observer and not directly
involved.
The reference to permitted users for MS Office was in direct response to
someone asking me if I knew the answer to that.
I very often "control C/control V" online news articles, for instance, which
I subsequently print or save. I very often find myself unable to format
(margins, fonts, etc.) these items in Writer, but not so in a word processor
that I am more familiar with. Occasionally items just will not even appear at
all, but I can open another word processor and the item shows up normally. I
encounter many more "difficulties", but I better take one at a time. If I can
solve one, then I will look at another.
Perhaps I have found a forum here that I can get some advice and assistance
that I need to learn this program and how it works and hopefully raise my
personal ratings for it. In time, perhaps I can learn to utilize the program
so I can replace a very expensive program that it basically parallels.
Does that sound like a better attitude? John

Perhaps you could expand on where OOo "just doesn't "cut the mustard""?
Feedback regarding OOo, positive or negative is always helpful. Just be
careful to not start a "this sucks" war; specific examples and reasons
why OOo doesn't suit your purposes is ineed helpful.
In the end, there will always be good reasons to stick with some
software or another. But the reasons for doing so, and feedback on why,
are what help modify OSS to adapt. So, put on your flame retardant suit
& please do provide some feedback on why OOo doesn't cut the mustard for
you.
