Using the OpenOffice.org Data Form extension to enter information in spreadsheets

Let's say that you've got a spreadsheet where you need to enter a lot of information. Here's one example, but let's say that you have lots of fields, aka lots of columns, and you have to scroll around a lot to enter the data.

What if there were a bit of an easier way to enter the data?

It's the Data Form extension. Download and install the Data Form extension here:

http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/DataForm

Download the file.

Then install that extension file.

After installation close both OpenOffice.org and the Quickstarter (the icon in the traybar), and start OpenOffice.org again.

Then set up the data like this, get it going.

Then click somewhere in the data, not a blank cell, and choose Data > Form. The data entry form will appear.

Thank you for posting this - just what I've always wanted! Really does just what it says on the tine...

I meant tin. Oops...

Makes it much easier to fill in data on a spreadsheet when it is too wide for the screen. Thanks for this one!
