mh: I just took the latest comments from 20181 to open a new issue:


I released a corrected version of OOoVirg, which fixes :
    *  Conflicts with software using other keyboard hooks (iTouch from Logitech,
Autocad,...) [Should work, but I cannot test : I have not such materials...]
    * Traybar icon too similar with the one of the Quick Launch of
OpenOffice.org (Thanks to Frédéric Vuillod)
    * A Win95 problem (DLL not found), caused by the long name of the DLL.

There is just a few lines modified in the code ; that would be nice if those
changes could be integrated (it is only bug fixes). Only one point could cause
problems in the integration : the use of #pragma data_seg("SHARED") (required by
the fix of conflicts)

The pack is here (code included) :
http://people.via.ecp.fr/~remi/win/ooovirg/ooovirg_tray.zip

Since I released this version, I haven't received complains, so it should work
decently :-)

OpenOfficeHookTray for Windows - Readme

===================================
WHAT IS OpenOfficeHookTray?

Some locale keyboard layouts (Ex: Dutch, French, Spanish...)
have a wrong decimal separator set on the NumPad (typically, a period '.'
 instead of a coma ",").
OpenOfficeHookTray remaps, at system runtime, the correct separator.

===================================
HOW TO RUN OpenOfficeHookTray?

The FIRST time you run OpenOfficeHookTray, you will need to follow
each of the following steps:

1. you will find OpenOfficeHookTray in the 'program' directory of
OOo's installation directory.
2. BEFORE OOo runs, double click on OpenOfficeHookTray.exe.
3. A tray icon appears called "Hook virgule OpenOffice".
4. Right click on this icon and choose "Show" inb the context menu.
5. The "OpenOffice Tray" dialog appears
6. Choose how you want to use OpenOfficeHookTray in the options.
We advice, for an easy use, to check "active for all windows", thus you will
avoid any typo in the name of the target application.
7. Click on the [Register] button. This will save your settings
8. Click on the [Quit] button. OpenOfficeHookTray will shut down.
9. Restart OpenOfficeHookTray.
10. Start OpenOffice. The NumPad now outputs a coma instead of period.

===================================
HOW TO START OpenOfficeHookTray AUTOMATICALLY?

The best way to start OpenOfficeHookTray automatically is to create a
link in the Startup menu:
1. In Windows Explorer, go to <OOo_installation_path>\program
2. Copy the OpenOfficeHookTray.exe file
3. Go to your Startup directory. The easiest way to do it is to
click on the [Start] button, then "Programs - Startup"
4. Right click on the opening sub menu.
5. Choose "Paste link here".

OpenOfficeHookTray will now be started on each Windows starup.

===================================
HOW TO (DE)ACTIVATE OpenOfficeHookTray?

If you need to suspend OpenOfficeHookTray's execution, right click on its tray
icon and choose "Deactivate"

If you need to go on running OpenOfficeHookTray's execution, right click on
its tray icon and choose "Activate".

if I'm wrong to reopen it). 
Kind regards - Sophie

Hi all,

In order to ease the use of OOoVirg under Windows, Laurent Godard has written a
macro that install the software in OOo.
The document is here (but in french).
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=27450

The pink button 'Installer OOoVirg' install the icon OOoVirg in the systray and
add an icon in the OOo function bar. When you click on this button, a dialog
window pop up, saying that the installation will be effective the next time
you'll run Windows and that the icon will be visible the next time you run OOo.
The 2 buttons Oui (Yes) and Non (No) in the dialog window allow you to run
OOoVirg immediatly if you answer Oui (Yes).

The button on the left of the document [Désactiver le lancement automatique]
uninstall OOoVirg, the second button on the right [Supprimer l'icône de
lancement rapide] remove the icon from the function bar in OOo.

Kind regards - Sophie
