Thanks so much for your quick response Alan. I tried to remedy the issue last night and found that the "save" option was not checked in settings, only the "save as" option was checked. I then checked the "save" option and that seemed to correct the problem on every new doc I opened. However, my original one will only "save as." Not a big deal, may be a glitch on my computer, but if you have any ideas about it, I would appreciate your input.
Thanks for the awesome work you and the Open Office team accomplish. Well done!
