Columns not working..SO forum(s)..SO version upgrade to prevent issues?

Hi there,
1. For some reason when I put some text in a writer doc into columns, I cant REVERSE the process. So I originally created 3 columns and now need to go back to one, so just like MS word, I highlight the text which I want to revert back to one column, click format, then columns, then select one column, then OK, and the result is NOTHING. Reason? It's been doing this several attempts now over the course of a few days, all attempts failed.
2. Is this the only active StarOffice forum? http://support.staroffice.com/ is totally inactive and they haven't verified my registration sign up for over 1.5 months...so I can log in but I cant even start a new topic.
3. If I'm using StarOffice 8 will I run into crashes or formatting issues since there is a SO10 out there (10 is the latest version, right?) If so, is there a place to upgrade or get patches or what do you recommend I do?
I am using StarOffice 8 MS windows XP Professional 5.1 HP x86 2GB memory laptop.
Thanks a lot in advance :)

I was also looking for a regular official forum at sun. I think there is no other place, maybe with the so9 versions they will improve support.

  • Client Side Javascript Validation not Working in Struts 1.x version

    hi,
    I'm following the steps provioded in the below link for Javascript Client side validation but still it is not working.I'm struggling to get this work.
    [http://www.visualbuilder.com/jsp/struts/tutorial2/pageorder/9/|http://www.visualbuilder.com/jsp/struts/tutorial2/pageorder/9/]
    "The framework automatically generates the browser specific JavaScript and validate the data only at the client side."From the above statement i undertstand that framework itself generates the javascript function for validating the field mentioned in validations.xml file so that we dont have to explicitly write a javascript function for
    validating the fields
    (or)
    Do we need to call an explicit function
    Please need help on this.
    I have followed all the steps mentioned on the above link but Client Side Javascript Validation not Working in Struts 1.x version....

    From here it looks like you used Safari instead. Lots of choices that's what I like.
    You did end Firefox and try to restart didn't you?
    If you did then I would expect you have a problem with your Firewall, and would have had it before, does not affect IE, it does affect Firefox, I don't know about other browsers. See

    Webcam not working for Macbook Air 2013 after upgrading to OSX Mavericks? Yahoo/ Google/Skype cam chats not working. Facetime works though. Any updates of Mavericks released to fix this?

    I have a MacBook Pro Retina display: 15.4-inch late 2015 with OS X Mavericks install, only on second week. 
    Insight works on FaceTime, Skype, but yahoo program does not show insight cam in dropped down.
    Now when I got my new MacBook Pro, I down loaded all new Skype (worked tested), FaceTime (Worked Tested), Yahoo (not worked)

    Yes, any version of PSE qualifies for upgrade pricing, but if you're in the US you might want to consider running the trial  for now and waiting for the black friday specials, when the full version will be a lot less than the adobe upgrade price.

    Apple Mail Search and Spotlight do not work for locating email messages after upgrading to Lion 10.8.3 on my 27" iMac.
    When searching in Apple Mail, sometimes a get a few results (with many missing), and sometimes no results at all.
    I had absolutely no problems before with Snow Loepard.
    I have reindexed mail and my startup drive. I have followed discussions regarding this matter and tried everything - a waste of time.
    This is VERY serious for me - I have many thousands of messages that I archive and need to reference for work and clients, and now I cannot find them.

  • Bluetooth not working properly after 10.6.3 upgrade

    I am having trouble with the magic mouse after the 10.6.3 upgrade.
    The mouse works normally when working on the computer but if I kick off a file
    transfer (file copy) to my NAS over wifi the mouse becomes unusable.
    The heavy wifi traffic seems to bog down the bluetooth transmitter for some reason.
    The system works normally with a wired mouse during the transfer but bluetooth devices such
    as the magic mouse, pda link and sound just die during a wifi file transfer.
    I reloaded the magic mouse driver but it did not help.
    Under 10.6.2 this worked perfectly. The other problem is that the awake on bluetooth is also
    not working since the 10.6.3 upgrade.

    Hello Roy:
    You might try trashing a preference file (com.apple.bluetooth.plist) and restarting. I do not use WiFi, so I do not have a parallel system to examine.

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?<br/> ''A troubleshooting mode.''<br />
    You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut. Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
