Asif,
Thank you and others for responding.
What you write is exactly what I have done. I can switch my keyboard
from Dutch/English to Hebrew and that works fine in OpenOffice.org.
It also seems to work in the story editor, but when I save the text in
the text frame, the order of the letters is reversed. What was written
from left to right ???, and what should show on the screen
gimmel-beth-aleph, becomes aleph-beth-gimmel.
