OpenOffice.org isn't M$ Office. Anyway, I build a package with a patch enabling autosave. Could you try? Default is 15 mins AFAIS and it *will* prompt you.... I am not actually sure whether I should enable prompting or not... What I fear (sorry, don't remember old Windows times anymore) is that I open a document, edit it a longer time and OOo will autosave it to the old location where I wanted the old document retained and save the new one under an other name... http://people.debian.org/~rene/openoffice.org/test/autosave/openoffice.org_1.1.3-4.5pre_all.deb Grüße/Regards, René -- .''`.
