I saw an article about libreoffice, a free download. I downloaded it. I could not open it. I asked for help, here.
This morning I've received more than a dozen replies. None of them make any common sense--at all: none address my question. I am not the "Landis" person. So I will repeat: I have downloaded LibreOffice. It won't open. How do I open it? I have no computer/Internet training. Thank you. ________________________________ From: planas <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Thu, April 7, 2011 10:50:58 AM Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] I am downloading LibreOffice to try it out.
