Yes, I tried that. OOo very politely respected the Symphony file associations and did no repair. The only way I got it to work was to delete all traces of Symphony from the file associations. If the file association was Symphony-only or Symphony and OpenOffice, then I simply deleted it and fixed it later with a reinstall of OOo. For all other associations, I only deleted the Symphony entry. Hint for anyone suffering from the same problem: I eventually figured they could be easily located by searching for the partial string "standalone_" (without quotes). Better solution: don't install Symphony until IBM gets its act together. Its particularly unforgivable IMO for beta software not to uninstall without a trace because that's what its for: to install, try out, and then delete. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
