Are the following needed or not?

Joe, nothing in your list is needed, except perhaps in very exceptional circumstances.

in today's climate a lot of people cannot afford to spend in any circumstances because prices are far too high anyway. In short, people cannot overspend because they do not have the money to do so

Many of the current financial problems of such people would be eased if this were indeed the case. Unfortunately they are bombarded with offers of credit, in the form of cards, bank loans, hire/purchase etc, that encourages them to continue spending money they do not have on things they do not need. H/p used to be called rather more appropriately, the "never-never"!

I've tried everything I can think of, short of a ctrl + start-up reset.

Then try that. It worked for me.

Something you posted in the old Serif Lounge

I do not remember. Perhaps it was pointing out that it should be "rung" not "rang" in the 5th line.

Don't you find the subject of emojis representing people who wear glasses totally fascinating and absorbing

No. I find it fascinating that some people do.

I actually filmed this the other night.

I think you mentioned before that the singer also sang opera. He has a good voice.

Is that your wife, with the hair, walking across behind him? Now fully recovered from covid?

I remember Broad St Station. It was Midland Region, ex-LMS I believe, rather than Eastern Region (ex-LNER) as was Liverpool St Station. I had, and still have, relatives in the Maldon and Colchester areas, so we used Liverpool St Station fairly often. The 133 bus from Croydon, where we lived, terminated there, which was convenient. Still does, I believe.

The electric trains at Broad St used a third rail similar to the Southern Railway system.

There are no passenger trains anywhere near me these days. No buses either.

Dirty Dick's still exists, but it is in the City of London, opposite the east side of Liverpool St Station, near Petticoat Lane Market (Middlesex St), not in East London. A bit of a tourist attraction, but the beer is good - or it was on the several occasions I visited it.

You've got it, Albert. Quite a clever little equation, isn't it?

Unless you do the right hand side of the equation first, then the answer becomes 230-110=120.

Which is correct = 5!, as Mr Cheetham says. Jack will explain. Perhaps Mr C should end his sentences with a full stop.

Since I last posted my wife caught covid!

I trust she makes a full recovery, and you manage to avoid the bug.

Agreed, Robert. She was a great lady.

I believe Charles, in his way, will also be a memorable monarch. Long live the King!

When you first import an Excel file it will become a Table in PagePlus and you will be able to add rows. However if it is then converted into a PDF file from PagePlus, the Table will be not be retained as a table, but will become separate text frames if the PDF version is opened in PagePlus. No doubt that is what has happened.

It would be worth keeping the Excel version, modify it as necessary in Excel, and re-import into PagePlus as required. Excel handles tables (spreadsheets) rather better than PagePlus.

That does not appear to be a table cell that is selected, just a text frame. If it were a table cell, it would show the cell labels,  numbers at left and letters at the top, as in illustration here:

What does the Hint Line tell you?

I suspect that at some time you have created a PDF version of the file, and opened that in PagePlus rather than the original. Saving that version would overwrite the original if you did not give it a new name.

Can you right-click on the table and insert rows from that menu?

Bear in mind that at that time, the Germans had launched thousands of V1 towards London, and had begun sending V2s as well. About a dozen V1s and a V2 landed within a mile of my home, three of them within a quarter mile, so any strike against any Germans at that time was not questioned.

...also .. pronouncing Le Harve correctly

But not how to spell it! smile

The destruction of Le Havre was a sad affair. It helped with its liberation, but was it really necessary at that stage of the war?

Cracked it, messing around with the number format settings.

That's it. Under Format/Page Number Format make the First Page Number 0 (zero). Only positive page numbers appear on the pages - zero and negative numbers do not.

I assume you have the page numbering on the Master Page. Perhaps on the odd pages you have enlarged the contents (eg the text frame) to cover the page numbering. Possible solutions, if this is the case, is to make the fill of the text frame transparent, or ensure, in the Layers tab, that the Master Layer is on top.
