Re: [libreoffice-users] Formatting question

Hi :)
It might be more productive to contact their webmaster/mistrees or find the 
people that develop the site somehow.  They might be able to giive better advice 
on how to format stuff.

Tom :)

Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Formatting question

Sorry it took so long to get back, I was on vacation, but did get a little time 
to look into it and while I am going to use everyones suggestions it turns out 
it's not LO but the site I upload to. It reformats and I have to go in through 
their editor to fix it. Pain.
Anyway, again I am going to attempt everyones suggestions in hopes maybe one or 
all will override this.

Thanks again!
