Before I start, let me tell you the little story, how I got the idea for writing this article. When I wrote my first article for OSNews, one of the screenshots I included showed my diploma thesis. I merely wanted to show that OpenOffice.org in Fedora Core 2 features native icons, nothing more.

I have been "trying" to write a manual. I gave up on OpenWriter because of problems with getting the numbering as I would like it. My document formula was Contents, Information then an Index. So instead I went to KWord which would do what I want but crashes so often with tables that it isn't funny. I wasn't prepared to us LaTeX because I need to focus on the documents looks as opposed to fiddling with formatting but I was doing that in the end anyway.
If your method works like you say it does then I will move back to openoffice.
