Thank you, but how do I find the File Explorer address bar? And, what ‘name’ do I use to “rename the ‘user’ folder?

If you are using Windows do this by: Close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File Explorer. Copy and paste %appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer Address Bar and press Enter. Rename the "user" folder. Start OpenOffice. This cures most spellcheck problems. Note that reinstalling OpenOffice does not generate a new User Profile. It picks up the existing one, which is where most OO problems reside, due to some misconfiguration. -- Rory O'Farrell <ofarr...@iol.ie>
