OOo Off the Wall: Fielding Questions, Part 3    Friday, March 11 2005 @ 04:49 PM EST Contributed by: glosser The LinuxJournal offers their third tutorial on Open Office. This one focuses on fields. The Functions tab of the Fields window (Insert > Fields > Other > Functions) contains tools for working with content. Some of the fields on the tab are useful for writing drafts and editing. Others are useful for maintaining different versions of a document in a single file. To maintain multiple versions, you can choose from several fields, each with a different strategy--varying content according to condition, selecting from a list or hiding and revealing content as needed. Many of the fields on the Functions tab can take time to set up. For a document that is printed once, they probably are not worth bothering about. It is when you are building templates that many of these fields come into their own. With a bit of planning, you can have your templates serve multiple purposes, making them even more useful than they already are. Full tutorial   [ Views: 1292 ]
