I have been using Openofffice.org writer for about an year or so. I also have the Openoffice.org (ver 2.4).
Well. For students of medical transcription and legal coding, MS Office Word has a special feature called Window. (This option is available under "File Edit View... etc., - when you open the text editor for document writing). Using this module and other options contained in it, we can compare the original document associated with a voice file in 'side by side', 'split' and 'cascading' modes (original document and the copy created by the user - one below the other) - while listening to the associated voice file. In OpenOffice: There is an option under Window|New Window. That will provide you with two copies of the same document in two windows, which you can move/resize as required on your screen. Changes made to one window will be reflected in the other. Alternativley, you can open a different document in that second window. Now, in Openoffice, is it also possible to open two different documents in two different windows, and arrange them in "cascading" mode? (i.e., arrange one window below the other , as in MS Office Word?) Pl.let me know about it? K.S.Ram Kumar
