Thank you for replying, Peter. I had given up having a response to the problems I was finding in my attempts to open OOo.org, so I just unsubscribed to the list. But most of my former WORD docs are opening up with this program now, and I'm expecting (hoping) to hear some response to the several ERRO REPORTs which Sun Micosys notfied me will be forthcoming.
No problem.
Two things I asked for help or explanation were: When I copy from a web page, often the paste into a new OOo document comes in the form of what I believe are frames, and it exceeds the boundaries already in the WORD doc I had been pasting in before. I want to get rid of these, but don't know how, and I've been unsuccessful in trying to line up the borders with the previous text I had before.
I am not sure how to remove the frames afterwards. Can you tell if OOo is treating them like tables?
To avoid this problem, you could try a Paste Special. Choose *Edit > Paste Special* and then choose unformatted text.
The other thing, when I was trying to add some text from a web page and working with OOo I found a message in red at the top of the page that said: " You currently do not have JavaScript enabled in your web browser. The ABA website relies on JavaScript for display purposes. To fully experience the ABA site, please enable javascript."
How do I enable javascript, and is that done while I am in the OpenOffice.org in which I have been working?
I don't know if you can enable it now, I think you have to do it during install, although that could be wrong. One way to do it is to uninstall OOo, and then reinstall it enabling Java. (This might also permanently fix any file associations issue you have.) Make sure you have the latest version of java before you start.
