Ctrl V in beta 1.1

Openman · Guest

HI, I just loaded the linux version of Openoffice beta 1.1

I get pricelists from places and I usualy make a little markup on them and copy the forula (holding ctrl down selecting many spots on the spreadsheet with the formula) well I was shocked.. the most used copy paste funtion I use would not work..

so you know the fomula its say a number in cell a3 and in b4 I paste the fomula
so in b4 I have
=(b3*.05)+b3
I get my answer (thats fine and dandy..
but when I go copy that.. (in the normal versions! and back!) I can paste that any ware and it will use the cell beside it (to the left ) and mark it up my 5%

so if it was cell e66 I would paste in f66 and the fomula would show the markup of cell e66 in f66 I normaly could pick random spots on the spreed sheet with no probs !

I try it here and I get a error (well a msg !)

insert into mutiple section not possible...

AAAAAAaaaaaaah

Please tell me this is still possible.. have you changed this quick way of coping a cell formula..

If you can point me to lititure or web link much appreatiated!

I had a spreedsheet open and clicked on the cell with some text in it. then went up to the top highlighted the text ctrl C then went to anouther open calc (spawned from this calc) and clicked on the cell and went to the top and pasted with the ctrl v and both calc spreedsheets disapeared.. ?!

beta is way beta still

Probably no response because the problems may be unique to you or your particular set up. I cannot duplicate either problem so it is not a generic 1.1beta issue or a change in design - ctrl-c/ctrl-v works as I would expect.
If you are still having problems, register on OpenOffice.org and post a bug report.
