Subject: [newbie] StarOffice 6.0 can't save file

I have upgraded  LM8.1  to  8.2  twice, once  leaving  StarOffice 5.2
in place
and once  after uninstalling 5.2.  In the first case,  SO  Writer  would
load
and function for a while -- and suddenly disappear completely.

I suspected 5.2 had caused a problem, and tried an upgrade on another
insallation (8.1 to 8.2)   Now  SO 6.0 seemed  to be  running okay,  but

when I try to save a file  I get this notice:

        StarOffice 6.0

Error saving the document  Untitled1:
Wrong parameters
The operation was startted under an invalid parameter.

Also, trying to run setup.  it starts to load, and the icon hourglass
runs, and then  it also disappears.

An help will be greatly appreciated.

Bob, if you know where the main files are for star office, and I suspect they are in /usr/local, go there and check permissions on the /usr/local/soffice file (or whatever it is called). If you don't know, do a slocate, or locate or whereis or[oops didn't finish)   

to find the file and check the permissions. The above seems to have gone out as HTML, can someone confirm. I am having a devil of a time figuring out how to get outlook to stop sending in HTML.
