Instances of this process seem to hang around in my system and my wife's after open office file's have been closed. If this happens several times in the course of a session it becomes impossible to open a new file without first starting task

Interesting. I see no such effect; when I close OpenOffice, no residual process remains. Do you have OO on QuickLaunch?

I don't have it on Quicklaunch, because I have  too many other things loading at
startup, including Lotus which I still use for many purposes including Organizer
and Approach database.

I haven't seen multiple soffice.bin processes, though I have seen several associated soffice.exe ones. Normal closing of the files does not seem to remove them, but closing the session altogether generally ends them all. Sometimes, though, file handling errors or other circumstances (and I don't know which) leave them behind, and then the soffice.bin process(es) have to be ended via Task Manager to be able to reactivate OOo. I haven't seen what you describe, a buildup of these processes while the session is still operating, with a maximum somehow (probably due to the number of OS "handles" in use) that keeps new files from opening. This may be worth an issue, if there isn't one already. Does anybody know of one? It would be nice to know exactly what creates these orphans.
