Hello, I have been using OpenOffice Writer for a number of years and I have recently has problems with the program. A main concern is whenever i save a document in Word 97/2000/XP format, the program tells me that the document has been saved in the format I requested, but when I go to open the documents, they are displayed as an unknown file type with the unknown file icon (the white box with three squares). Every time I save a document now, even previous documents that have been saved as Word 97/00/XP documents, they are converted to unknown file types every time I go back into OpenOffice.
I also had difficulty with the formatting of a Word document that I opened in OpenOffice. When I opened the file, the formatting had been thrown around and text boxes were moved and had a strange red arrow in the right-had corner. I have never known of this problem before - could it be due to a virus? Thanks Best wishes, Matt Mills --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
