Hello Marcus, I don't use macros in my documents.
The message appears too,when I create a new text document with Writer, and try to save it, as follows: [image.png] The file is saved, after I pressed the "OK"-Button. By opening the file, the message appears again: [image.png] It is really strange. And this is only happening by the Writer-Tool. If I create a calculation-file with "Calc", and save it, all works very fine. So far: I always put the Main-Tool and the Writer-Tool of OpenOffice to the dash, so I can use it very easy by clicking on it. Question: You suggested, I should try to start Writer from Terminal. How can I do this? I am really not so familiar with all these commands. Best wishes Wolfgang Gesendet mit [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/mail/home): Ein sicherer E-Mail-Dienst.
