Eric: I think that the problem is that the preferences file, which is located in the .openoffice.org2 directory under the /Users/<username> directory, is located on a network mount point, OpenOffice will start up but crashes as soon as any of the menus on the menu bar are selected. However, if a symbolic link is used to point to this directory, which is created in the real directory structure, the application works and does not crash. I think there was an IssueZilla on this before, but it may not be MacOSX specific.
