Ouch, sorry Andrew. I might have given him a link to the older book off-list.
I take it the
http://www.pitonyak.org/AndrewMacro.odt

Tom :)

I'm sorry, Andrew, but I don't know what you are talking about :( I have
seen the abbreviations in the discussions, but I don't really know what they

Office. I have Libre. Thanks. -----Original Message-----

Are you looking at the version for OOo or for LO. This was very recently
redone for LO.
