That is likely true but does neither belong to the original thread nor 
at this mailing list.


Again, please stop OT discussions. Usually this results in subscribers, 
who solely interested in the main topic of the ML, leaving.


Thanks

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. I cannot check the actual path at the 
moment (since I don't have AOO installed on the machine I am using now).

Hello!
I've used Open Office for some time now and LOVE IT!  I haven't tried using the 
Mail Merge Wizard feature until today and it kept telling me that I needed Java 
to run it.  I had previously removed Java from my computer because of the 
problems with it.  Anyway, I reinstalled it to try and get Mail Merge to work.  
Unfortunately, I still can't complete the merge.  It can't seem to find Java.  
I am using Windows 7, 64-bit.  Thank you in advance for anything you can do for 
me.

It's my job to not ignore this because I'm one of the moderators of his

Java Troubles When Trying to Use Mail Merge ODD CLAIMS!!!

All I can surmise, is that one of you is interested in having inter-operability 
of files, and file structures with OpenOffice.
