Re: Java Troubles When Trying to Use Mail Merge
Windows is your problem! When have we ever observed MS to make major jumps in technology? As did Steve Jobs did with Apple. MS makes small increments, thus dragging along problems that resides in their code. I have not heard anything that says they have changed their mode in technology.

Re: Java Troubles When Trying to Use Mail Merge
Despite Dr. Zarlenga's odd claims, I do believe that it is possible to run Java on Windows. I happen to use Linux, so anything that I say is of course suspect. A few questions for you. 1. What version of AOO are you using? 4.x? For version 3.x, you need Java 6, for AOO 4, you can use 7. 2. What vesrion of Java. Note that I believe that AOO can only use a 32-bit version of Java, not a 64-bit version. 3. Somewhere under Tools Options you can tell AOO where your Java is installed. This must be set I believe.
