The Search Term Text Box
Sir:
I need help. I cannot find the Search Term Text box in Open office help.
Exactly where do I find this. I have tried the binocular icon and all it finds in text in documents.
I am tired of sending questions and never getting any answer. I am about fed up with this whole deal!

Hi James,
I am so not certain I am able to be of help you with this except: The attached screen shot is the result of my search of OO Help selecting the Index tab, then entering the term docking toolbar. I do hope you will have a positive resolution. Oh, and the attached screenshot appears at the bottom of this message, on my screen, anyway.

OK,

Not sure I understand correctly, so please forgive me if the
following isn't going to help -
I have a feeling there might be a misunderstanding as to which
"search box" you would like to use.
If you would like to search OpenOffice's help files, then you'd
need to go to the Help menu (top right) and select "OpenOffice
Help" (second item from top). The "Search" box that comes up at
the top when opening the Help menu is a "Spotlight search"
window, and belongs to the Mac operating system - really no use
for OO, but that's Apple's responsibility... :-)
If instead you wish to search your OpenOffice document, then
you'd go to the "Edit" menu and click on Find & Replace...
I have been assuming you are using OO on a Macintosh computer.

I have done as this suggests and have gotten nowhere. It searches text in documents that I have not created.
I have docked the toolbar and all I want to do is un-dock the toolbar. I have even removed open office from my computer and re-installed it with no results. the tool bar is still docked and un usable. I once saw a way to reduce the space between lines and I cannot find it again.
