I'm having some trouble with hyperlinks in openoffice 3.2 spreadsheet, though it may be a begginers problem.
I wrote a script to execute a certain task (in my case, to open an DNA alignment file with bioedit) and then, in openoffice, I assigned a hyperlink button to the path needed to execute the script, which is in my /home ("./script_file"). When I do this the first time, clicking the hyperlink button runs the script perfectly. However, whenever I close openoffice and re-open it afterwards, the hyperlink doesn't work anymore. I've checked and this happens because the original URL, which was "./script_file" changes to /home/user/etc... or /temp/etc... and, obviously the file isn't found. If I manually correct the URL, the hyperlink is functional again... how to fix the URL of an hyperlink so that I won't have to correct it every time I close and re-open the program?
I know this is more of the Openoffice question but I felt I would find some solution here for this. At my work I am using lot of PDF files which are created using Openoffice Calc (Spreadsheet). I want to convert those PDFs to Calc file again for editing. Currently I am using a windows Machine with able2extract pdf converter for converting PDFs to .xls file. But it is not ideal solution for Linux and Openoffice users here.
Does anyone else find that Openoffice 3.2's spreadsheet app becomes unresponsive when copying and pasting multi-cell selections? I've had this problem ever since I started using Ubuntu 10.04, which comes with OO.O 3.2. The problem becomes noticeable whenever I make a selection more than about 8-10 columns across. Once the flashing border appears around the selected cells, the spreadsheet app becomes very sluggish. The mouse still moves normally, but it takes several seconds after a click until the highlight moves to another cell, or to un-select the cells, or copy them. These slowdowns happen both in old spreadsheets and in freshly created ones. They didn't happen with Openoffice 3.1 or earlier. Haven't tried it under Windows, so I'm not sure whether this is an issue specific to Linux OpenOffice 3.2. Other apps don't seem to be affected.
I have a spreadsheet I have been using for years not and as I go I hide some of the cells. Today I unhide those cells and they came up but very thin and hard to read. I have tried to highlight the "thin" cells and do some type of format but I can not seem to get them back to the normal size.
I want to link txt files into an OpenOffice document, or a PDF or an HTML. Whatever I try it doesn't work. ODF output puts the complete path even if I have indicated Relative Path (Options-Tools...) etc. PDF does also not work I also set again PDF output to Relative and Reader application. HTML output does not work not even if I manually change the link in GEDIT, save and open: Gedit also saves it with the complete path.
I'm trying to install a language-pack for my OpenOffice, but there seems to be a dependency-problem. Maybe someone has a suggestion. FC12, x64 OOo.x64 3.1.1
I have a large music directory that I'd like to somehow acquire, or generate, a list of each sub-folder within it, and then somehow get the list into a spreadsheet format. Is there a way to do this?
I'm trying to create a simple times table on OpenOffice.org Spreadsheet
I'm trying to use the "$" in the top tab (input line) i.e.
Quote: =A3*$B2$ Quote: =A3*$B3$
[Code].....
To make the question clearer. When I used to use Microsoft Excel in Windows I would do just as I said in the above and I would be able to construct simple multiplication tables to more bigger/harder to memorize kind of type. And that would be by dragging the rectangle from it's bottom-right corner

So my question is what's the alternative OpenOffice.org Spreadsheet symbol for the "$" symbol used in the formula bar in Microsoft Excel?
I have used the words 'Open Challenge'.I have attached a spreadsheet 'Sample file for filter.ods'.TASK: In a presentation, I would like to show what are the Topics of India on Day-1 , Day-2 , Day-3 , Day-4. That means I am going to Filter India and (Day-1, Day-2, Day-3, Day-4).
I had a really important spreadsheet with my student's grades in it. I wanted to rename it so I right clicked and renamed (at least that's what I thought I did). After I looked again, the file somehow became a zip folder. I inside the zip folder are a bunch of files but I can't the spreadsheet anywhere! Here are some screens:
I'm taking here about tins of directories, thousands of files. I'm looking to find a command that makes me able to move the results above to another path, and to create that path once it doesn't exist like below:
Java applet not loading image with relative path(e.g. images/1.jpg) but loads image with absolute path(i.e. from /root/user/images/1.jpg) . This is a problem when i want to host the applet on web server
I have a program that takes a relative path as input appends it to a some path string to get the actual path.
Now all I can input is the relative path. So if I want to go one level above my input will be ../mypath.
If I know the depth of the path used internally, I can use .. as many times to go to the root directory and then give the absolute path. But suppose I do not know the depth of the directory, can I construct a relative path string such that it considers it as a relative path. One way could be to have enough .. in the path string so that I can force an absolute path for some maximum depth of path.
Is there some path string syntax that I am not aware of but can achieve this?
Experimenting with shell variables, accidentally deleted the path variable how could I return to the original path value. What kinds of problems will I have if I don't have a path variable.
Is there any way to make an OpenOffice spread sheet open to the last cell that was edited? I have a friend that has a very large spreadsheet, and would like to have it open to where he left off, rather than cell A1. He says excel does, or can be made to do this.
I'm in an Aussie rules fantasy football competition and someone posted a zip file with relevant stats for players in the under 18 comp, as a guide for selecting possible players in next years team. Never used any of the office applications. I've attached the zip file and this is what the poster said...
In the actual spreadsheet though, there are two sheets. The first is all the raw data which you can order by position (based on me watching the games, and the line-ups listed on the AFL websites), K: H ratio, state etc. The second is a sheet which you can use to compare players.
I find that sometimes it is easier for me to make decisions about which players to pick when the stats are more obvious, so if you are the same, you can use this sheet as well. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy the spreadsheet and I'll update it after each round. Fixed, I had to change the file from .zip to .xlsx
I have an nfs share that mounts automatically when kde starts.
Code:
wendy@DellNB:~$ cat .kde/Autostart/mountNAS.sh #!/bin/bash mount ~/TestShare #echo "NAS Mounted"
[code]...
Gimp works fine editing and saving photos from/to the nfs share. kWrite can do its thing and read/create files on the NAS. Files I create with vim are visible and editable under windows. OpenOffice however, when I try an open a file I get "file is locked by unknown user." I open as copy and try saving to the share with a different name... No Dice, error saving to share the file is created on the share but it is empty. I did some reading and found a post that said to comment a line from a file called soffice, which I cannot find.
In OpenOffice how do you generate a PDF from the current sheet in a spreadsheet. This spreadsheet has 40 sheets. But I want to get a PDF of sheet8 only. When I "Export as PDF", I get a PDF file that contains all 40 sheets.
how to add a path to PATH variable permanently so that it remains persisent even after closing shell and rebooting the system when i added a path, to variable it remained there as long as i didn't closed the shell. but when i reopened it ,changed were undone.
I have a path c:windowsackup I need this string to be changed into /windows/back/up I used the command -bash-3.00$ echo windackup | sed 's/\//g' but the output is windbackup
prefix=user@my-server: find . -depth -type d -name .git -printf '%h�' | while read -d "" path ; do ( cd "$path" || exit $?
[code]....
How shall i go about changing the absolute path to relative path, so that /home/git/mirror/android/adb/ndk.git gets converted to /mirror/android/adb/ndk.git //echo <command> "$prefix$PWD.git" ?? - anything for relative path?
I have created a very simple spreadsheet - using gnumeric - with small numbers and simple formulas - the numbers fit easily inside their cells - the formatting all seems in order BEFORE I try to print. When I set up the spreadsheet for printing - and "print preview" the document, I see hash marks in place of numbers in a majority of the cells. When I print the document, the hash marks are printed, in place of the numbers. When I view the document under normal circumstances, for editing - the hash marks are not present. All seems well. I cannot print the spreadsheet without the hash marks (#####) appearing!
I created a spreadsheet which I had edited repeatedly. Today I ran out of disk space and needed to resize some partitions. After that proceedure I opened the spreadsheet and when I click on a cell to see the formula I get the message "document opened in read only mode". Other documents open fine.
I would like to create an automatic sequence of Openoffice backups of a spreadsheet file, and each would be the daughter of the previous version.I would like it to autosave every hour so at the end of the day I could then manually make up a 'Day' file for permanent record.
ClamAV tells me that three of my OpenOffice.org Calc spreadsheets may be infected (status "MBL_144360.UNOFFICIAL", if that means anything). This seems not entirely implausible, since yesterday I used a USB stick to transfer files from a Windows system. Anyway, I'd really like to keep these spreadsheets. Can I disinfect them somehow?
how to read data from excel to java in the excel sheet chinise language is present while reading into java iam getting question marks.how to get chiniese language instead of question marks in the java file
In my prior experience with spreadsheet software on Linux, Gnumeric has been the most useful for my daily tasks. However, I am now required to plot scientific data and I need to be able to plot log-log graphs and semi-log graphs (graphs with logarithmic scales for x- and y- axes) and I cannot seem to find a program that will "fit the bill".
Gnumeric allows for log-log and semi-log graphs by selecting the logarithmic scale for the x- or y- axis, however it automatically does the log to a base 10 and I need to do log graphs to base n (n being a variable that I can set, whether it is 1.5 or 150000).I know this is possible in MS Word (somebody showed me a few weeks ago), but I want a Free (as in speech and as in beer) program that will allow me to plot log-log and semi-log to different bases. OpenOffice.org is also not useful for doing this as it plots to the base 10. Also tried labplot and qtiplot, they give a few more bases but still no base n
