OpenOffice installation 4.1.5
HELP ! My previous version of OpenOffice 4.1.3 somehow became corrupted and am trying to install version 4.1.5. Have no trouble going thru the various steps, installation for anyone using this computer, "typical" setup type, etc. Then I come to "click INSTALL to begin installation". I do so and nothing happens. I wait an hour or more for the installation to begin -- nothing. Always get a message that Wizard installation was interrupted before installation completed. Repeated attempts yield same. Willing to go back to version 4.1.3 were it available. But may as well stay with the most recent version if I can just get past this hangup. What am I doing wrong ?

Re: Page numbering
Are you using page styles in this document as you should? The title page should have its own style. If the rest of the document is text, it also should have its own style. At the bottom of the title page, create a page break. With this select the style of the text and select the page number that you want the text to begin with. All of this is well documented in the Styles and Formating section in the Writer's Guide. I suggest you download a copy and study this section. It will do wonders to how well you can use Writer. While I now use LibreOffice exclusively, I used OpenOffice.org 1.0 to 3.13. I had no problems doing many things with styles as I wrote documentation on Base (OOo's database section) for ODFAuthors.
