OpenCards 0.9 comes along with a great bunch of new features:

New in version 1.2:

• The scrolling bug (OpenOffice.org would keep jumping back to the text cursor when you tried to scroll) has been fixed!

• Asynchronous, on-demand loading of dictionaries complete with a progress bar.
• Hungarian help file brought up to date with the English one.
• A few other bug fixes.

release notes for web8.oxt

This is a beta version of the openoffce.org addon. It will appear as a toolbar with one button. Pressing the button will show the addon window, which can read your clipart basket provided through your account on clker.com . Any image you selected can then be copied to the clipboard and you can paste it in the correct location in your document.

Release notes.

• When a connection is lost (i.e. closed), the code attempts to reconnect (i.e. to obtain a new connection from the driver manager)
• Improved error handling
• The names of the parameters are now correctly localized for the Spanish locale
• The messages for the parameters in the function wizard are now more explicit (hopefully)

Bugs

Adds the SQLREQUEST function to CALC. This function is similar to the SQL.REQUEST function of MS-Excel.
SQLREQUEST is an array function. This means that it results in an array containing the data returned by the data source. The online help of Calc includes the "Array Functions" section explaining how to use them.

The following is an example of a typical call using the MySQL J/Connector driver:

=SQLREQUEST("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";"jdbc:mysql://server_ip_address/?user=name&password=abc";"SELECT * FROM table")
