Interesting situation.

[John Moore]

I'm trying to figure out why OpenOffice is not running. I got my Mac  
serviced, and it came back with the OS reinstalled, but with the  
previous system settings remaining. When I try to get OpenOffice to  
open, I get a dialog saying that another instance is using my persoanl  
settings. I'm deleeting the Previous System stuff, hoping that won't  
damage the Mac and also hoping that this will let OO run again. Is  
this a good move? Thanks.
