Hmmm, I have been using StarOffice 5.2 and 6 Beta both with no problems but the beta has now "expired" and I cant read the sxw files in 5.2. So, I am hoping to be able to do that in OpenOffice?? You would think I have the Java there for OpenOffice if the other two progs worked? However setup cant find java. What i do seem to have is /usr/bin/java which seems to be kaffe - whatever that is. I have been recommended to install Java2 SDK and am looking to install j2sdk-1_4_0-linux-i386-rpm.bin - this may be the best for mozilla plugin? Can i then install 1.1.8 for Open or Star Office as well? I wonder if this is or should all be done by mandrake and i made an error in the installation? OR Would it be better to upgrade to Mandrake 8.2 (I may copy this post to the mandrake list.)
