Now see. You should be moderated for responding to a hijacked list thread rather than advising the poster that he hijacked a thread and pointing him to the OOo mailing list etiquette page... <http://www.openoffice.org/ml_guidelines.html#netiquette> What no mention of thread hijacking? Let's try the new & improved: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail.html "Start a new thread for a new topic When asing a new question, please start a new thread with an appropriate new subject line. This makes it easier to read, and to find later in the archives. " Closer & the Tom & Dennis E's of the world will be much happier with top posting... of to the sandbox you go Andy. :-) -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] For additional commands send email to [email protected] with Subject: help
