Hi Michael,

We have tested the file you sent and we can't replicate the problem. The
sheet is very simple and if there was a bug in the software it would
certainly be affecting many other people. So all I can think is that it is
something in the way your system is set up. We know that a partial download
can result in these symptoms. Did you check that the downloaded file was
the full size it should be before installing it? It should be around 150
MB. If you have checked that and are sure it is not that, can you get a
friend with a similar computer to download and install AOO and try it. If
it works on their computer you can look for any differences between the two
systems.
