Calc Error Message
Keep getting knocked out of calc and getting an Internet Explorer message that states "Could not perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installed'
Just started to get message yesterday. Had older version but also got message after downloading 4.1.6.

Re: Calc Error Message
What action are you trying to do when you get this error?
Cheers

Re: Calc Error Message
It is trelated to the mail sending function. You need install a real (and local) email client software (like the Thunderbird) for this function. But the next infirmation is very strange:"Could not perform this operation because the default mail client is not properly installed'
Is it a pure text or is it a Link, Hyperlink? If it is a pure text, then try to reset your User profile in AOO4.1.6.We are changing the text in a cell.What action are you trying to do when you get this error?
...Or maybe you hit some hotkey accidentally and the "send the document" function is assigned to that key?

Re: Calc Error Message
It is an email address that we are entering into the cell. Cell had an email address that we are changing.

Re: Calc Error Message
A quick test shows that right-clicking on a cell with an e-mail address will highlight the cell, and bring up a menu....but there's no Edit in that menu, so once that menu shows, just ignore it, and press F2 to go into the text editing mode.

Re: Calc Error Message
By default Calc will recognise URLs including email addresses and format them as a clickable link to create an email - subject to a suitable email client being available on Windows. Web addresses are treated similarly.
You can turn off this behaviour via Tools | AutoCorrect Options, select the Options tab and uncheck URL Recognition.
Note that existing addresses will be unchanged; you can select the cells and use Ctrl + M to set them to default formatting.

Re: Calc Error Message
The links (like the email addresses) will work, when you click on it. It will call the email client software.
Use the method to edit them described by RusselB.
And you can adjust the working method of the links (Ctrl-Click or pure click) in the settings - against the accidental clicking:
Tools - Options - Open/LibreOffice - Security - Options - Ctrl-click required to follow hyperlinks

Re: Calc Error Message
Is this in respect of existing email address, or new ones you are adding? If the former, note that I said above
"Note that existing addresses will be unchanged; you can select the cells and use Ctrl + M to set them to default formatting."

Re: Calc Error Message
Trying to change cell content in existing spreadsheet. Changing to new email address. Sheet is used as a record of internet sign ins. There are no formulas in the cells.

Re: Calc Error Message
Navigate to the cell using the keyboard arrows. Once at the cell, press Ctrl + M to clear the formatting that displays it as a clickable URL and reset the formatting to default settings. Or as I suggested above, select all the affected cells and use Ctrl + M.

Re: Calc Error Message
Looks like this last suggestion might work. Will get back on if there are issues. Thank you.
