Thanks. I wanted to access writer to post the

tried to do this the program said my email was already registered,

Where did you try to register? If you attempted to register at
OpenOffice.org, then follow the advice as provided by TJ Frazer, he
was right on the money with his recommendations. (he is a pretty
smart guy).
I am using OO3.1 on Windows 7 in
France. When I start a text, the program assumes, reasonably,
that I am writing Froggylanguage,
Pick self off floor and stop laughing...
and gives me the nice French format
that separates quote marks, question marks etc. by spaces marked
with blue lines, which I want to keep. But I am writing in
Obamaspeak,
Boy, the places I could go with that

and when I change languages to use
the spellchecker, this format disappears. If I knew what this
format is called, or how to describe these blue spaces I could
probably find the answer. I suppose I could switch between
langauges continually, but there must be an easier way to do
what I want.
Can someone please give me a
vocabulary lesson, or point to the solution ?
Is your intent to switch between languages in the same document (a
bit of this language, a bit of that language, etc...). If yes, then
you may want to create a paragraph style for the different purposes
in each language. That may be the easiest way to go for that. If you
know that you want the entire document to be in a specific language,
that may change things a bit. For me, I would probably then write a
macro that changed the selected area to be some language. (then
again, if all you know is macros, then you use them to solve
everything).
I am not certain that I fully understand your problem, so my advice
is probably wrong.
If, perchance, you can solve this, then thanks in advance.

search the OOoForum for user-names but not for an email address.
Also, if you have ever posted to the forum, you may be able to
find an old post and determine your username from an older post.
Note that if you have posted, you can use a wild-card search to
try and find the post that you made based on a username. For
example, I went here: http://www.oooforum.org/forum/search.phtml
and entered *whyte* as the username.
