Hi All, I'm intrested in the Open Office suite of software that runs in Linux. I currently have the Knoppix v. 3.2 (July 26, '03) release.
Is there anyone in the LUG who runs Open Office who might be able to help me to avoid "pitfalls?" I'm interested in database and word processing apps." Respectfully submitted, Cap'n Buck "The instructions said to run Windows '98 or better.......So I loaded Knoppix Linux." -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
