Re: [libreoffice-users] Check (tick) box.

       That's because LO is compatible;
            opening a document in LO is handled differently from
copying/pasting.

       If you're looking for a reason for this;
            well, some of these folks on this list should be able to help
you -
           sorry, I'm not one of these gurus  ;-)

       In fact, my most recent computer problem arose a few months ago -
            when sending out a newsletter,
          I do not attach anything although I do often include URLs ...
           how some of these URLs appear as attachments to the receiver has
me stumped.

Thanks, a table could be configured.
The interesting part is that I could save the document as an odt file and
the tick boxes still worked as an odt file, even after closing and opening.
I just couldn't copy the tick boxes to another odt file.
Cheers, steve
