hi folks,
hope it's ok to ask a quick non-linux question. I'm just making a quick
US election spreadsheet, with rows for the various states. I intended
to have a radio button for each row, with the possible values "Obama",
"McCain", amd "Undecided"; depending on the value, the electoral votes
for that state would be added to the electoral college total for Obama,
McCain, or neither. As far as i can see there's no simple way to do
this in Openoffice.
How would other people solve this problem, either in openoffice or using
some other tool? It seems like a very simple problem, but I don't want
have to build a whole new interface from scratch just to make it work.
And while there are lots of online calculators, i expect firefox to
crash multiple times on election night and i don't want to keep losing
my predictions. Anyone have any suggestions?
thanks,
matt
