Hi everyone,

Well I didn't exactly forget how to use the
whole program but I am having a little bit of
trouble at the moment trying to remember
how to make the Table Of Contents pages
link to the correct page in my eBook...

Can someone refresh my memory please?

Thanks.

Sorry it may be unrelated ... but using latex you can completely avoid this problem and it will automatically make table of content and the list of figures for you

I'm getting ready to remove OpenOffice. Sometimes, when I save a document in OpenOffice, it converts other documents I am using to OpenOffice. My publisher called last night and asked why the document I sent him had a grid? The only thing I could think was that it was an OpenOffice document or was somehow hybridized. Shelley

  Make sure your chapter titles or section titles (whatever you want linked) are in the same format, such as Heading 1.
  
  When creating your TOC, make sure to choose the level you wish it to have - I usually choose just 1 or 2, depending if you want the chapters delineated into sections.
  
  Click on the Entries tab. Now click into the box right before the E, then click the hyperlink button.
  
  Go up and click into the box right after the E that you now see, then click hyperlink again.
  
  Your TOC should now be hyperlinked.
  
  Thanks

  So, if it's ok to chip in here with related questions, what's the difference between this "OpenOffice" and the thing called "LibreOffice"? Are they fully compatible/interchangeable, or what? (And/or, having "Microsoft Office" anyway, with Word and so on, does that mean that I shouldn't ever need either?) :confused:
  
  Thanks

  Alexa,
  
  I've personally tried all three (Word, OpenOffice, and LibreOffice). I don't see that any one is necessarily better than any of the others. I think it best to get really good at your chosen application and don't worry about the others.
  
  If one had half the tools you commonly use, another had a different set of the other half of the tools you need, etc, then there would be a reason to use more than one application. But I don't see that. Sure, they all have a few things unique to the particular software, but any of them will do 95% of what an Internet marketer needs to do.
  
  LibreOffice is supposedly interchangeable in file format with the others. However, at their web site they say:
  "Ever improving interoperability - Conversion with non-natives formats, like RTF or DOCX have significantly improved, allowing you to import Ink annotations, import and export RTF native mathematical equations. You are now able to attach comments to document text ranges such as paragraphs."
  
  That tells me there are still some challenges and import/export issues that they are working on.
  
  Anyway, I believe the best alternative is to get really good with one software and don't worry that you're missing out on one or two little features that you don't have.
  
  Good luck,
  
  Steve
