After uploading a file, you need to determine its URL; [click on share, then URL appears - 'copy' this then delete the box] then 'paste' that URL into the e-mail; the file will not appear, but the URL will lead the viewer to whatever you uploaded :-)

I'm very sorry Anne, but going there prompts me to lists of software by categories; only a fraction of these are actual Free Software (and I have to look for them). So unless I live on a parallel internet anyone can go there and see by him/herself: it's mostly freeware and donationware. In fact

Likely the problem is that since windows 8 is 64 bit, Mark installed a 64 bit JRE. LibreOffice is 32 bit and needs a 32 bit JRE. If this is the case, Mark, install the 32 bit JRE for windows. This should solve the problem. Dan Original message From: Joel Madero
