probably because it is not exactly easy for users to look at the
koffice snapshots since the project was moved to kde 2.0 development.
if the standard format is XML, great. i would guess that the poster
is happy.

good. now, as i understand it, there's some sort of dynamic data
exchange possible within the koffice apps. if you'll forgive a very
elementary question, how is this effected when i document is taken to
a machine that doesn't contain the parent documents? are all the
linked documents saved with the instant document in their entirety,
or only such portions as have been incorporated into the instant
compound document? (ie, nine cells from a 150x500 spreadsheet).
