Bruce please, there is no reason to take such a negative attitude. I have a valid question involving SuSE Linux 8.2. If you don't like me asking questions on this list then perhaps you should filter or ignore my posts.
I think Bruce is simply trying to remind you that a) this is a member's list and SuSE employees do not necessarily monitor or respond to it, b) any response you get will come from people who have experienced a similar problem and resolved it or who are interested in the problem, c) in either of the cases in b) you may have to wait a while (read possibly a few days) because potential respondents may be on vacation, have a job, etc. I think his comments arise from the fact that you have asked the same question Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2003 11:28:24 -0700 Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2003 15:10:24 -0700 Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2003 16:50:55 -0700 Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2003 16:53:46 -0700 While this implies the problem is urgent for you, it is not urgent for some of the rest of us. In fact repeating the question so often so quickly, potentialy without regard for those of us who have dial-up or those of us who pay by the downloaded kB (many in Europe do), can be mis-interpreted as a very self-centered action. That said - have you tried looking at http://www.OpenOffice.org for any advice? /Hans
