All you need to is remove or rename the OpenOffice user profile. (the .../AppData/Roaming/... etc method above). For unknown reasons, which seem to vary from User to User, Windows machines can give this problem from time to time. It may be caused by the user's method of work. Because the OpenOffice files are archives, hence more complex than flat files, they take longer to write. On the en-Forum we recommend users to be leisurely in closing OpenOffice - close the file(s), gather your papers, then close OpenOffice itself and wait a short period (only a few seconds) to allow OpenOffice to write its configuration data back to disk before powering off the computer. Don't just save the file then shut the laptop lid or snap the power switch off immediately. The few extra seconds taken doing this will be a lot less than the time taken to rebuild a damaged file or rectify a configuration error such as damaged spellcheck. -- Rory O'Farrell <ofarr...@iol.ie> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
