I had asked about scrolling sideways. I had mistakenly said that I had a
spreadsheet in word and then went to Openoffice. I was wrong. I had it in
Works and went to Openoffice. I can't scroll sideways now.
How did you capture the Works spreadsheet? How did you get it into OOo,
and into which OOo application (Writer, Calc, Impress, Base, Draw --
Calc would be the right choice for a spreadsheet)? What operating system
and what version of OOo are you using? Are you saying that the normal
scrollbar for horizontal movement is not working, or that you can't keep
the leftmost column/s on the screen when you scroll, or what? We really
need more information to help you.
I have also just discovered that while I use to be able to designate the
properties on a line on a table in Word via an eraser or pencil tool I haven't
found that capability with OpenOffice. Is it there?
What properties are you referring to? In Writer, there are certainly
properties for tables, rows (the standard terminology for what you
probably mean by a line), paragraphs, characters, and so on, but exactly
what are you trying to do? We need to know what you are trying to
change. The eraser and pencil tools typically refer to graphic objects,
while Writer tables are not graphic objects themselves, although they
can certainly contain them. If you have simply made a picture of some
kind from an application like Works or Word, and then put the picture
into, for example, Writer, there is no way for OOo to reconstruct the
data in a meaningful way.
You will have to be much more specific about what you actually have for
us to be able to help. Sample files would help, too. Generally ODF files
(.odt, .ods, etc.) can be posted here, or you can put examples onto one
of the public sites for temporary storage and give us the URLs.
