Hi :) When you re-install LibreOffice notice on about the last screen there are tick-boxes to set LibreOffice as your default Office Suite. You probably want to UNtick them so that MS Office continues to be used most of the time. You will have to right-click on the website files and then choose LibreOffice or "Writer" to open them in LibreOffice.
Alternatively, if you have already installed LibreOffice then you might try right-click on a Word document and choose to have it opened by MS Word by default. Good luck and regards from Tom :) ________________________________ From: sephz <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, 4 May, 2011 21:44:55 Subject: [libreoffice-users] Re: MS Word "broken" after LibreOffice install? I actually decided to restart the computer right before I got your response, and that seems to have fixed the problem - MS Office works just fine now. The restart probably "auto-cleared" a cache somewhere. Crisis averted! Now that I know that the problem is "fixable," I may try re-installing LibreOffice to see if it will coexist peacefully with Word after a post-install restart. I will update to let y'all know if it works. For the sake of "full-disclosure," this occurred with Windows 7 (64-bit) and Microsoft Office 2007.
