Re: [orca-list] bug with orca and openoffice

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel panix com>]

Okay, you can't read msoffice documents in openoffice.  So don't read them 
in openoffice.  Find whatever openoffice has to save as and convert the 
documents to more readable forms and edit in those other forms then import 
your edited documents back into openoffice if windows people need your 
reaction or response.  This failure happened in openoffice 6 and continues 
in openoffice 7.  I'm not going to waste time in a finger pointing contest 
either as to which software bears some or most responsibility for this bug 
since I'm unfamiliar with both code bases.  That people for them that 
hasn't yet figured it out is how and why so many editors and choices exist 
on Linux in order to get you around problems with other "operating 
systems".
