I am have forgotten how you make the e-mail print at the bottom so I have selected, dragged and dropped. However most people complain if I do it this way: I will try to bottom post for this list.In normal business, yes people top post. Although for long emails bottom posting is much easier.2) Thanks for the link. I have studied it and in does give me the paragraph symbol and this will be very useful. But I can't find the line break which is in webpage texts and e-mails which if you click on the 'non-printing characters' button shows up as a long base backwards L and an arrow pointing backwards which is the same as the symbol on the 'enter' key on most keyboards. These special characters in MsWord are easily found in a similar window to that under 'Insert' 'special character' but a table like this must be somewhere to get all non-printing characters.I think that is called a hard-break (\n), anyway here are a few more links that might help resolve the problem http://www.oooninja.com/2007/12/example-regular-expressions-for-writer.html http://www.oooninja.com/2007/12/backreferences-in-replacements-new.html http://readlist.com/lists/openoffice.org/users/0/736.html http://www.yourinspirationweb.com/en/regular-expressions-what-are-they-and-how-to-begin/ It is nice to know others find problems. One often gets to feel stupid.Anyway that has solved some of that particular problem. I often find help pages are very difficult to go through to find 1) what your looking for and 2) they are often written implying a level of knowledge higher than I am 30 or they are written badly. So I have to resort to asking specific questions to people like yourself.We all have that problem, well I certainly do. I may have solved my other problem of not printing all the letters: One suggestion was that I change the driver listed and I am not sure yet but I have changed it for the not recommended one and so far it seems to be working although it still shows the printer language as PDF. I am keeping my fingers or something crossed - very unscientifically! and it makes typing difficult! |
