Re: [libreoffice-users] How to unprotect readonly parts of a document?

       When I click on this URL, a HTML document appears based from LO -
            with only 1 line.

       I can delete, add, ... to this line.

       Hopefully someone else will understand your question and will come
to your aid -
           as for me, your question is beyond me.

       BTW - attachments are not allowed on this list  ;-)
