Hello,

Some time back, I posted asking for advice with OpenOffice.org's

presentation was a huge success!

Keep up the good work!

Re: Windows 8

John Boyle — 2012-03-15T18:13:23

To all: I have attended a class on the present version of Windows 8 and  
I'm not impressed with it at all, no more than I was with Vista which I 
didn't buy either! I think Microsoft has made a big mistake, because 
Windows 8, at least as it now stands, restricts your computer, which has 
to be updated anyway with touch screen capability, to only that OS. You 
cannot dual boot, for instance, and if you have legacy programs you 
can't use them. At least, as of now, anyway.:-)

Dear Jeff:

I also have used Oo for presentations during the 4 years I was in 
Toastmasters.

At that time I was using it on an XT platform.

Since the purchase of Sun by Oracle, I have gone to LibreOffice, but 
much is the same.

I also use LibO on Fedora 16, and with double screens on my laptop, I 
use the external screen for the audience (or it could equally be a 
projector) and the Laotop screen for the speaker's screen.

When I use my presenter, both screens change in synchronism. On the 
speaker's screen there are 3 parts:

1) is a small image of the image on the audience screen, so I can see 
where that is at without the need to turn my back to the audience.

2) is a similar image, but of the next screen to come up.

3) is a larger window with the annotatons (AKA "teleprompter"). This is 
a real help if the content of the speech/presentation is complex. Also 
it can speed getting back on track if you have an unexpected audience 
distraction.

One more thing I have seen a great and too often neglected

Thank you very much!

Dear Kay:

Thanks for your reply.

I will have to search AOO on my available Linux repositories to see what 
they come up with.

to me, the main reason so many went from Oo th LibO is because when 
Oracle bought out sun, people were afraid that Oo would (figuratively) 
become "less open". I tend to feel that a main open source app of this 
importance should be a true .ORG with no possibility of being used as a 
"front" (i.e. repeated enticement) to get people to go for paid 
products. Ads on the side of the web page just enough to pay for the 
site, is one thing, but I think more than that, many people are silently 
fearful of too much commercial aggressiveness, direct or indirect.

Actually my background is more industrial electronics and heavy industry 
than true IT. Now retired, I tend to make some gadgets myself from 
scratch, or near scratch, especially if, by doing so I can have added 
benefits from them in terms of:

-    durability
-    interchangeability
-    home shop repairability
-    other featu

Bruce and other Linux users --

You can, of course, install AOO on your own...

Developer builds are available now and Apache OpenOffice would love to hear
from you.

See "Testing Developer Installation Sets" on the Source page...

¡Hola! Luiz y todos:

This is interesting because the last comments I had bumped into in 
regards to win 8 were much more negative.

We will see how it goes.

At present, I am using a combination of XP and Fedora (32 and 64 bit).

LibO comes by default with Fedora 32 or 64 bit, Version 15 and up.

There is a whole new system every 6 months.

Best Regards,

Bruce M.

Hello, friends

I've been testing intensively the latest versions of Libre Office 3.5. X
and the version of Apache developers, known as AOO 3.4. both  in  Windows
environment 8 (previous version user) and the results obtained with both
products have been fairly regular,stable and also very good level of
performance
(Libo 3.5 Rc2  bit slow).

In general the result has been satisfactory. I will keep in the operation of
 both tests and I will tell later.

Re: Open office quit enexpectedly

Kay Schenk — 2012-03-08T22:39:20

Molly--
Can you tell use what version you were trying to install? If you can
provide the complete URL (location and complete name of the install file)
this would help. And more about your specific Mac platform.

Really, it would also be VERY helpful if you could file an "issue" on this
through BugZilla, the bug reporting system.

The link for this is:

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/enter_bug.cgi

You will need to register for an account first, however. Once you do this,
please choose the "installation" category, choose the version you were
trying to install (otherwise just leave the default), change the platform
to Mac, then fill out the rest and submit.

I have installed OpenOffice on my Mac and it won't allow me to open it.  An error message keeps popping up that OpenOffice.org<http://OpenOffice.org> quit unexpectedly. I try to click to reopen and the error pops up again.  I have reinstalled it and it still pops up with the error.  How do I go about fixing this problem.

Thank You

Mr. Minczeles,
Vor uw informatie: dit is een " alleen Engels" mail-lijst. Bovendien 
wordt hij binnen enkele weken opgeheven.
Mijn advies is Libre Office te downloaden:
www.libreoffic< at >e.org/download/
Daarvoor bestaat ook een nederlandse mail lijst: 
users< at >global.libreoffice.org. Het programma is een stuk beter dan de 
oude OpenOffice.
Uit uw vraag begrijp ik dat U Windows gebruikt. Helaas ken ik dat OS 
onvoldoende om een zinnig antwoord te geven.

    Beste mensen, ik heb het volgende probleem. Als ik in de Windows Verkenner een OpenOffice-document open wil maken, dan krijg ik het bericht dat ik de daarvoor benodigde bevoegdheden niet heb. Ik ben toch de auteur van het document, de eigenaar en de administrator !! Dit document in OpenOffice te openen, dat geeft echter geen probleem. Ik begrijp het niet.

If you have Excel files that are encrypted with a password, those files cannot be opened by current OpenOffice.org releases under any conditions.

If you have Excel files with protected fields or have a fully-protected (read-only) document, it is true that those Excel files are no longer protected when opened in current OpenOffice.org versions.  (Some protections of Word documents are honored in some releases.)

If this is of critical importance to you, please consider requesting an improvement in the issue tracking (Bugzilla) systems of the Apache OpenOffice project and/or The Document Foundation LibreOffice project, where future versions of OpenOffice-lineage software is being developed.

Dear Sir/Madam

I am looking of your Kind guidance In terms of using the Free Open office. I
have some query regarding to opening the Ms Office Password protected files
into Open office.

When I am opening any Password protected Ms Office Excel files into Open
office then we can unprotect it with out asking Password. So in this case we
loose the purpose of security.

Is we had any kind of method, in which any password protected files of ms
office which we are using into Open office, it should ask the password.
Without password it should not allowed to editing the files.

As well as after opening the file into open Office when we are using this
file into Ms Office then it will become unprotected while it should ask
password.

 

I am Looking of your kind response and help as usual.
