OK - we currently have a choice of my wording which you will find in 
issue 46397 (which was marked as a duplicate of 46347) and the 
wording of issue 46347 itself.

The problem with the wording of issue 46347 is that it is not a complete 
specification of the change to the dialog.  It also refers to a user action 
('If you choose NO') that cannot be taken on the form.  I.e. there is no 
YES/NO choice, only boxes to be checked/unchecked.  

If anyone want to propose wording different to mine, or a variation on 
the wording in 46347, then it must be worked up into a complete 
solution, like mine, which I repeat here:

OOo 1.9.79 can be made the default application for opening the 
following file types. This means that if you click on one of these files, 
OOo will open it, not the Microsoft progam that opens it now. 
... then after the list of file types and check boxes, add ... 
If you are just trying out Open Office, you probably don't want this to 
happen, so leave the boxes unchecked. If you want to try opening these 
files in Open Office, you can do that by using 'File Open' and selecting 
the file there.

Please let me have your suggestions (on the 'discuss' list, preferably).  
Its getting late here in the UK so I won't be replying until tomorrow, but 
let's hope we can reach a consensus in the next 24hrs.
