Did you get the same the error trying with mandriva-menus?

You hit the nail on the head! I should have tried that myself, but I
was slavishly following instructions rather than using my head!
Everything is now copacetic. I have the whole set of OO programs in
my GUI menu, and they work--at least Writer does,
so I assume they all do. This has been a long grind for each of us,
and I am grateful for your help and your patience--all of
you who pitched in to help me. Thank you very much!
(I still think you need an easier installation. It was not like this
months ago when I installed the program on my desktop.)

It is not all that complex. Some of steps could even be written as
a script that you could run as a superuser.
1) Extract the AOO tar file.
2) Browse to the RPMS files using the command line.
3) As a superuser, enter this command rpm -UVH *.rpm
4) Browse to the desktop-integration folder.
5) As a superuser, enter this command rpm -UVH <name of mandriva-menu
file>.rpm
6) Close the command line.
This should be all that it takes to install AOO.
