of OpenOffice betas and releases, to issue security bulletins, and to
report similar relevant information.  This is not a discussion list.
It will be used only for authoritative announcements regarding Apache
OpenOffice.

We encourage all OpenOffice users and other interested parties to
subscribe to this list by following these steps:

1) Send an email to:   ooo-announce-subscribe <at> incubator.apache.org

2) Wait a few minutes and then check your inbox for a confirmation email.

3) Respond to the confirmation email

(If you ever want to unsubscribe, send an email to:
ooo-announce-unsubscribe <at> incubator.apache.org and respond to the
confirmation email.)

More information on this list, and other Apache OpenOffice project
lists can be found here:

Fwd: Open Office 3.3 Problems

Further to the subject, I continue to encounter anomolies and misfunctions:  Re. the "VLOOKUP(), the references are to *.cvx, i.e. comma (,) delimited spreadsheets. Each time the objective file is opened (i.e. referring file), OO 3.3 brings up "Text Import" to convert to an *.xls.format. I save all files in .xls format to maintain compatability. With OO 3.2 upon first time import I would convert to *.xls format; thereafter with each opening of the objective file, upon clicking "Update), the file would open updated from all imported files.
 
The previously mentioned problem, that "Paste Special"-numbers & formats only from a VLOOKUP cell, pastes an empty cell. This rendere OO 3.3 useless to me.
 
Is OO 3.3 the latest version?, If there is a more recent version I would try it. Otherwise, I either need OO 3.2 or must go to another office program. I can't imagine the problems are unique to my applications. What say you?

Further to the subject email, below, also "Paste Special", numbers & formats will not paste any value; it is blank; "Paste Special"-text, numbers & formats pastes the numeric value as text, and so calculation still will not occur. Attempt to Paste Special again eliminating "text" yields blank cells. Right now I am out of business with OO 3.3!

I have been using OO 3.2 with good success. But upon installing and using OO 3.3 I am encountering serious problems. That which I know so far is that OO3.3 Spreadsheet  will not carry out calculations wherin one or more values are obtained via a VLOOKUP.function Specifically I have several spreadsheets that obtain values from another spreadsheet. E.g. a specific code is:
 
=VLOOKUP($A16;'file:///C:/Documents and Settings/jreyr/My Documents/ATTACHE-FINANCE/GJJT last.xls'#$Sheet1.$A$2:$M$27;2;FALSE())
 
If I paste special so that the actual numeric value is present, the calculations proceed OK.
 
Calculations are carried out OK with OO 3.2.
 
This situation with OO3.3 is unsatisfactory and is uselrss to me. Upon installing OO3.3, OO 3.2 is gone. Is there a remedy to the VLOOKUP problem or is OO3.2 available? The calculations are carried out daily, so I am  in real trouble with this and urgently await a reply.

Announcement: New Apache OpenOffice.org mail list to replace this list

Please read this note in its entirety. It contains important
information related to this mailing list, its migration to the Apache
Software Foundation, and the steps you must take to ensure continuous
access to the list.

Background

As you may have heard, Oracle contributed the OpenOffice.org (OOo)
code to Apache in June. All new projects at Apache start in the
"Incubator", a special part of Apache where new projects ("Podlings")
and their communities are given special attention by Apache "mentors"
as they learn about Apache, ensure that the source code meets Apache's
license requirements, and work toward their initial Apache release.

In parallel with the coding efforts needed before we can publish
Apache OpenOffice.org 3.4.0, the Apache OpenOffice.org community,
working with the Apache Infrastructure team, is migrating the many
legacy OOo websites and other online services formerly hosted by
Sun/Oracle onto Apache servers. This has been a huge effort and we are
showing good progress in many areas.

You can read more about the current status of the migration effort on
this wiki page:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/OpenOffice.org+Migration+Status

Additional relevant information is published in our project blog at:
http://blogs.apache.org/OOO/

Resubscribing

Among the services hosted by Oracle on the legacy OOo servers are over
300 mailing lists, including the discuss <at> openoffice.org mailing list
you are reading now.  In order to preserve your subscription to the
list, you will need to resubscribe to the new list address, per the
following instructions:

1.    Send an email to ooo-users-subscribe <at> incubator.apache.org. This
should be done from the email account where you want to receive the
list messages.

2.    This will generate a confirmation email which will be sent to
your email address. You will need to reply to the confirmation email
in order to complete your subscription to the new list.

3.    To send posts to the new list, you will mail them to the
following address: ooo-users <at> incubator.apache.org

4.    And if you ever want to unsubscribe to the new list, you can do
so by sending an email to ooo-users-unsubscribe <at> incubator.apache.org

We invite and encourage you to follow the above steps and to
participate in Apache OpenOffice.org project. If you have any
questions, feel free to post as responses to this note, or send a
question to ooo-dev <at> incubator.apache.org.

Notes

    1. We recommend that you do not subscribe via a legacy
openoffice.org email address. It is uncertain at this point whether
these addresses will be supported in the future.

    2. Archives of the legacy mailing lists are available here:
http://openoffice.markmail.org/

    3. Archives of the new mailing lists will be available here:
http://markmail.org/search/+list:org.apache.incubator.ooo-users

Re: Problem with the Open Office Text Processing

Dear George,

I have OOo 3.3.0 on another computer with WinXP, and with that version I can see the first five pages but page six is missing!  I guess it's some bug introduced somewhere after 3.1.1...

Since OpenOffice is going through some changes, I understand there won't be any development in the near future, so you should wait until they or the LibreOffice guys fix the bug.

I downloaded 3.1.1 from the openoffice.org site in January 2010, and I don't see where to download old versions from their site now.  Searching in Google, I found the following link, which you could try:

http://www.oldapps.com/openoffice.php?old_openoffice=19

Regards,

Gunther
