From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Does someone know how to move columns around in Calc?
A colleague was telling me the other day that feature is missing. I tested it, like grab the column from the top and drag and drop... to no avail.
I am not an office expert, so maybe you guys could help out?
Thanks
Click the column header to select the column, then click and drag the selected cells to wherever you want.
Note that dragging cells in this way is the same as copy & paste, so it will not insert the column at your destination and move the existing columns along, it will leave a gap where you dragged it from and overwrite the column wherever you leave it.
I've looked that up before. I think you have to hold Alt while grabbing the edge of the selection.
