Hi,

I use 95% of open source products including OpenOffice. I would list them, in a short while.

I have a pattern to write to open office calc. I will find it later and put on the forum. (I saved it on one of my computers and don't know on which... )

[mol]

I found that example!!!
It really works!
i don't know, who is author, but regards to him.
It also contains sample to create PDF, but something is wrong with aligning in PDF document.
