------- Additional comments from [email protected] Thu Mar 4 23:56:54 +0000 2010 ------- I have a 64 bit Dell Vostro Laptop with Windows 7 with Open Office Writer Version ooo320m12. I also have Word 7. When I downloaded the new version of Open Office, I was pleased to note that now has a file preview option when you open a file directory or sub-directory (much missed in earlier version). Unfortunately it does not work. No matter what type of text file I open whether created with Writer, with Word or anything else (e.g. older WordPerfect files), I get the same error message which is curiously "This file cannot be previewed because of an error in the Microsoft Office Word previewer" (or Excel previewer if it is a spreadsheet file (and even if created with the OO spreadsheet). Surely Open Office does not piggyback on Word. What is going on and how can I cure it. After initial problems the previewer in Word 7 works fine and displays all files including those from OO and WordPerfect. Thanks in advance.
