Re: Orca and Open Office

[Peter Korn <Peter Korn Sun COM>]

Hi Hermann,

You will find the option (and other accessibility options) that Mike is 
referring to in StarOffice/OpenOffice.org in 
Tools->Options...->StarOffice->Accessibility (the latter two being tree 
items in the Options pane.  "Use text selection cursor in read-only text 
documents" is a checkbox in the "Miscellaneous options" portion of that 
dialog box.
