------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Jul 9 22:55:40 -0700 2005 ------- The problem seems to be how XP deals with associations. If I log in as Administrator on this same computer I get 1.1.2 assocations as shown in sxw3.gif So it looks as if a user of 1.1.n who upgrades to version 2 could find the 'all users' associations of the new installation will be overridden by any 'per-user' associations s/he made for 1.1.n This XP feature could be a bit tricky - especially if MS use the same file extension for their 'Open Document' processor, and different users all need access to OOo but have different preferences. (As happens on my school computers, and quite independently on my family laptop) If possible, it would be nice for the install to scour the system for archaic associations like the ones on this system, and update them all. An install option to retain Microsoft .od? file associations on a per user basis even for an all user install may also be needed, with some way of letting the various users make their choices if necessary. Whichever way we go we will need to work on the wording of our help files! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
