Description capstone737 2003-09-09 06:20:38 UTC 
I have a document that was created in MS Word 97 and doesn't open properly in
OpenOffice 1.1RC4.

If you compare the two, OOo inserts some blank lines and extra bullet points.
Also, the margains heve been set in MS Word at:

Top:  1cm
Bottom: 1.5cm
Left: 1cm
Right: 1cm

OOo has made them all 1cm. So with the extra lines and bullet points and the
different margins, the document is 4.5 x A4 pages long in MS Word 97, and 5.5 x
A4 pages long in OOo. I will send you a copy of the document.

Take heart though, as the MS Word compatibility has *dramatically* improved from
earlier versions. :-)))

I was unable to send this to your web site and I tried to submit it a
few times but there was no response. However, I now see that it did
receive it twice. This one should be cancelled and the other one has
an attachment so it will still be valid. The other number is #19297.
