I'm really sorry you are having troubles. On the other hand, I'm happy you could read the code, it's rather huge and complicated :) > I haven't been able to use Open Office since they put their name on the > product because IT KEEPS CRASHING EVERY TIME I TRY TO DO ANYTHING AND I > MEAN ANY THING WITH THE PROGRAM. It seems you are facing the issue described in the release notes: http://www.openoffice.org/development/releases/3.4.1.html#AOO3.4.1ReleaseNotes-KnownIssues Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0 and 3.4.1 manage the user profile differently than previous versions. The old user profile is automatically converted so that users can keep their extensions and settings. In a minority of cases, especially with highly customized profiles (many extensions or customizations) the conversion doesn't succeed, Common symptoms are. frequent application crashes, problems with dictionaries or thesaurus, OpenOffice starting and crashing after a few seconds. To solve this, just reset/rename your user profile as explained in the official OpenOffice forum. http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12426 Regards -- Ariel Constenla-Haile La Plata, Argentina
