[JOHN RUSSELL]

I can read the list of items but have Not been able to find a way to open any 
individual items I have made up to end of 2017.so can you tell me how to open 
files, as I presumed it was to # click # on Open office   # writer ##
When I click on the # write Icon nothing appears

So as I have several files with text I want to adjust these.
My computer is a brand new Dell laptop

I'm trying to install Open Office on my new computer with Windows 10 and keep 
getting this message.  Can you please advise.



Error 1704. An installation for Microsoft Visual C++2008 Redistributable - x64 
9.0.30729.6161 is currently suspended. You must undo the changes made by that 
installation to continue. Do you want to undo those changes?  Yes No


When I click on yes to undo the changes, the same message keeps coming back.  
If I hit no it goes back to the installation window, but no farther.

Save AutoRecovery information every:

You only can solve problems by coding if you can replicate the problem
and have identified the cause of the problem.
So the user should first test if he can print envelopes from other applications.
So let him export the file to PDF and see if he is able to print from Acrobat.
Other option is to check if he can print to another printer and he said printing
To his Epson printer worked fine.
My guess is the problem is with the installation of his printer.

The moral is “ Don’t fix what is not broken”
