I tried to start a new email as I have come up with 2 more questions and wanted 
to separate them from the others.  I hope I did it right that is why I cc'd it 
to Barb.  

I am in OpenOffice 2.4 with Windows XP.  Working in Writer with tables.  My 
original question asked how to write sideways.  It was answered and I have done 
it but it won't stay.  When I close the document and then come back to it the 
writing is turned back again.  It is most frustrating.  I am again working in a 
document that was changed from Word to OOo 2.4 when I converted.  I went in and 
used format-character-postition-90%-ok.  Then close, open and it is back to the 
way it was before.  

2nd question.  In word I could insert symbols in to my documents.  a box by 
typing F2-G or a check mark with F2-C.  Do I have that capability with OOo?  In 
Word I would go to view-symbols, pick a symbol and give it a specific key 
stroke pattern such as I mentioned above.

Again thank you for your help.  Denise
