Maybe you could come out of the woodwork one last time and attack my specific Impress 
problem...

(a) It loses links between "interaction -play sound" and the MP 3 file.... annoying if you hv 
over 400 files linked and they all vanish without warning. No skin off your nose but a ***** 
waste of my time.

(b) Impress can't convert to .xls without all icon to sound file links being removed/destroyed. 
Hopeless as a business tool (at least under XP system). May shock you but many people 
world wide use MS powerpoint and some of us have to communicate.

With all your apparent background surely you could encourage someone to stick a filter into 
the forum that diverts un-subscribe to somewhere else... 

Service delivery is why people get attracted to products...... or is that simply old fashioned?

If I understand you, you are basically saying that if something is "freeware" such as LibO then 
don't bitch if it screws up.......... fine if it were a file converter or something but when you 
enter 
the commerical world (office products) then be prepared for "trades description" issues..

There are many websites promoting Impress as an alternative to powerpoint.... if so then 
ensure that statement is correct and that Impress can give powerpoint a good hiding which I 
for one would support and even pay for if it was better.... I said if!

I am at risk of abusing this forum as this type of discussion should be somewhere else..... 
maybe re-direct and we can get to the bottom of this... unless you've gone back into the 
woodwork...

BTW I do pay MS their licence fee's... I'd also pay for Impress if it were capable of giving me 
a GUI free presenter and didn't lose interactive links.

To add to your misery I am an XP user as I find Win7 GUI completely anal.

sincerely
