What I was hoping for was a way to point all future versions of OOo to a common directory that contained my user files, and thus be able to leave the files in place there. I'd rather change the filespec than have to copy files each time (from m62 to m65, to m67, to m71, etc.). I think it can be done, guess I'm going to have to dig into it.
I'd love this too; and now the file formats have settled down, it ought to be possible. For the moment, I simply copy over the whole user subdirectory to the new version, which seems to work. But it's not ideal.
When copying the whole user-directory, you'll have to edit the files dialog.xlc and script.xlc on the location (...\OOo..\user\basic), because the path of the basic-libraries is in those files.
Kind regards,

In the 1.x versions, I used to have one directory for templates, macros, and dictionaries called "OOo common", and pointed each successive version there in the paths dialogue. I don't know that was any less trouble.
