Hello,
thanks to Sarah for her help. That works fine, except for one thing. When I
generate my reports, using odfWeave(), some cells in my tables are filled
with the expression I put in the input file (/Sexpr(...)) instead of the
result of its evalutation. I suspected there was a problem in the XML code ;
indeed, when I look at the content.xml file of the input ODT file, there are
some <text:soft-page-break/> tags in the middle of cells.
Is it any way of instructing OpenOffice not to put these tags, or do I have
no other choice than removing them by hand in the content.xml file ?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Joel
