I disagree; at least on the OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice parts. While both can co-exist on the same system, you'll find that if you have, on Windows (doesn't matter which version), OOo installed and then install LO you get the following: - LO takes over all OOo application defaults & icons. - LO uses the same executable names as OOo (soffice.exe, swriter.exe, etc). This makes it impossible to select an .odt and re-associate it with OOo. Windows isn't my native language (I use linux & test w/Windows) so if your experience is different I'd appreciate knowing how you manage this problem. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
