OpenOffice works fine on Catalina. One small problem I had is running
a macro from the menu would cause a crash, giving a warning saying I
had to install a legacy version 6 of Java. That turned out to be
nonsense. Just go to Oracle web site and download the latest Java.
Apple preferences say that Java is up to date but that is also
nonsense. In the OpenOffice preferences click on Java, wait a few
seconds and you will have a choice of Apple's "up to date" Java and a
your newer downloaded Java. Choose the newer one then OpenOffice works
great. Funny thing is Apple preferences still don't recognize the
existence of the newer Java.

Yeah, probably unnecessary, but also good on you for follow-up ‘mea culpa’.

Still, very entertaining, nevertheless... I smiled a lot, and I’m sure many 
others, did too..!

Good morning,
I have lost access to my open office files. I am ok with that. However, I want 
to download the latest version. Is the latest version compatible with the new

Hope this is the right e mail address. Thanks for listening

OpenOffice 4.1.7

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
ich möchte ihr Programm OpenOffice 4.1.7 nicht mehr verwenden, weil ich es 
nicht mehr benötige. Ich habe die App gelöscht, aber es erscheint immer wieder 
auf meinem Mac. Bitte teilen Sie mir mit, wie ich die App restlos vom Mac 
entfernen kann. Vielen Dank und freundliche Grüße
