Hello all! I know this is long, but I’m explaining why I’m doing it the way I’m doing it. It’s necessary for you to understand.
I’m brand spanking new to Libre, but have used OO for eons. I decided to make the switch when Open Office kept crashing every few minutes and I couldn’t figure out why. I couldn’t get any help on the matter that would fix it, so I decided to just let it go.
However, I have a spreadsheet with about 240 rows and 9 columns. It’s not big by normal standards, but every single time I ever close it (not open) in OO, OO crashes. This makes a forced recovery each and every time I ever want to open it.
I tried opening the file in Libre but Libre freezes. My guess was that it has something to do with the fact that it was crashed and requires recovery. Finally, I just decided to copy/paste the info from the OO spreadsheet to the Libre spreadsheet. So far, so good… until I noticed that the column which contained URL links didn’t copy the URLs.
Is there a way to do this? My guess now is that this was the problem opening the OO spreadsheet with Libre. This is bad if Libre can’t handle copied spreadsheets that are preformatted because OO does.
Surely there is a way?
