Hi,

I don't think you understand the request and most likely have not investigated 
how Acrobat Reader works in this area.

With Acrobat Reader by default, when clicking on a PDF link in Internet 
Explorer, the PDF document is opened. It is often desirable to not open the 
PDF document, but to have the default be to be presented with the Save 
dialogue and have the PDF file saved to the hard disk for later reference.

Acrobat Reader allows the user to select and change the default behaviour 
without uninstalling Acrobat Reader.

With OpenOffice.org once the ActiveX option is installed clicking on a link to 
an OpenOffice.org document will open the document in the browser. This is 
fine. 

To change the default behaviour so the user is prompted to Save the document 
requires uninstalling the ActiveX option. This is very unfriendly. 

IMHO the user should not have to uninstall the option when they simply want to 
toggle the behaviour as Acrobat Reader allows. 

Would you tolerate having to uninstall and reinstall Acrobat Reader to change 
the default behaviour. I certainly wouldn't.

I was simply suggesting the default behaviour for OpenOffice.org ActiveX 
control to be able to be turned on or off by the user via Tools -> Options.

As uninstalling is the only way to currently do this, since reporting this 
issue I now don't install the ActiveX control. If I could toggle the feature 
on and off without installing/uninstalling, it would be a useful feature. At 
the moment it is not.

Thanks for your time.

Kelvin
