Helllooo, out there! We can keep telling folks to redo their bleeding profile. How dumb is that! Fix it so that's never required, fer Kroist sake! Microsoft never insisted we do that.
By the way, Boy & Girls -- if OpenOffice (by whatever flavor) wants to remain compatible with MS Word, et al, then you better take another look at the upward/downward compatibility between OO and other contenders. One absolute MUST is the interface between the other contenders (AOO, MS Office, et al). Else, you've got a gawd-awful and ever-lasting mess on your hands. I despair... Maurice D.

It was under Windows XP. Since then, no problem.

I did this when I first installed AOO and now its doing the same thing. It is also annoying when the recovery isnt needed to load the file or when no file exists and it makes it up. Canceling so you can just load from the file doesnt do any good. It just closes and creates the dummy file. > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org ----- No virus found in this message.
