In Writer, you can achieve more complex tables by embedding an OOo spreadsheet: Insert > Object > OLE Object... This provides the functionality that you describe. Is this sufficent? If not, please advise on the enhancement you would like to see. Regards, Andrew Yeah, a Spreadsheet OLE is a good workaround. But it could also be a nice enhancement to have a rounddown function for Writer's tables. Thanks for the info. I have now embedded a spreadsheet in my invoice, which gets around the lack of a rounddown operator. It does however make it a little messy to edit the table. I had envisaged having my secretary work with these docs, and with this in mind I wanted to make it as easy to work with as possible. Thanks again, Andrew Hi, I'm really finding it hard without the rounddown operator in writer. I've tried embedding a calc spreadsheet, but I find it too awkward to use. Now I'm a fairly accomplished C/C++ programmer, so I'm thinking about adding the functionality. Can anyone give me a few pointers about what parts of the codebase will need altering? |
