Fw: Open Office 4.1.0 has stopped working

2014-08-20 Thread Otto Krenzer
Further to the message below, I would mention that the problem only occurs 
whilst trying to open Microsoft Word Documents.  Adobe pdf file attachments are 
opened without any problem.
Looking forward to and thanking you for your speedy response.

Subject: Open Office 4.1.0 has stopped working


Dear Sir/Madam

I have been using Open Office for several years now, and never had any 
problems.  Today however, over the last 6 hours, when I want to open an e-mail 
attachment I receive the message stated as Subject of this mail, followed by 
the message that Windows is trying to solve the problem, and to try again 
later.  This I have done umpteen times, but without success.

Please advise how to overcome this.

Thank you

O.  K r e n z e r

Usually, before opening a message attached to an e-mail, one needs to save the 
attachment to the local hard disk so that OpenOffice can access it. e-mail 
programs often hold the attachment in their own private store, where it is not 
accessible to OpenOffice.

Email apps should be able to open the appropriate application.
