Thanks for the response, Dennis.
1. We are using 32-bit JVM 2. Do you know how to verify this? Or change its behavior if this is the case? 3. There is nothing like the windows registry on Solaris that could be getting in the way of this. -----Original Message----- From: Dennis E.

OpenOffice.org, in part of its detection of available JREs, may be looking for Sun as the provider. It might not recognize JREs that now have Oracle identified as the provider. 3. On Windows, there may also be registry variations with Java 7 JREs that OpenOffice.org 3.3 does not recognize. Whether there is anything comparable for Solaris is something others can speak to. -----Original Message----- From: Steele, Raymond [mailto:raymond.ste...@lmco.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 3, 2013 12:28 PM To: dev@openoffice.apache.org; us...@openoffice.apache.org Subject: RE: OpenOffice 3.3 and Java 7 The issue I am having is OpenOffice will not accept the Java 7 JRE via Tool->Options->Java->Add.
