[Solved] Formatting/ CopyPaste stopped working

Post by billsotnikow »

Hi

I've been using OO for years without any problems. Recently, its become almost unusable for some reason. I cannot copy/paste any text from other programs into an OO document. Also if I try to open a doc created in another program with OO the formatting makes it unreadable and often most of the text is not even visible. Since this started happening, I tried installing the latest update and went from ver 3 to ver 4. But nothing was fixed, all the same problems persist.

Anyone able to help me? I hate to abandon this program as its been great for me, but I'll have no choice but to purchase an alternative if I can't get it running again....

Thanks,
Bill
