Thanks, Gary. I just tried the download from the main OOo website, and
it apparently only offers 2.4.1. Is there another way to download 3? I
am not using Vista, so that should not be a problem.

You can keep both versions 2 and 3 on your system. Because of
differences between the two, it's best to use the most current version
for your work. I still use v2.4.1, although v3.x sometimes fails on
Vista. That's probably more of a Vista issue, but Vista works OK with
everything other than OOo.
If Jean wants to get out another print version of Getting Started, then
work on that first or do it concurrently with anything else.
