Thank you G. Roderick Singleton,
I know that you/we are volunteers here. I simply thought I would get 
some help here as it worked before. So, sorry and thank you for replying!

Please see below:

Isn't there anybody who can help me with the following?
What is up here? Am I ignored? Is anybody reading me?
You are not being ignored but we are volunteers and not paid Customer
service. Please understand this.
 

OS: Linux SuSE 9.2, up to date
OOo: V1.1.3 (SuSE rpm)
OOo: V1.1.4 (tar ball from OpenOffice.org installed under
/usr/local/OpenOffice.org1.1.4)
Both versions basically work independently(?), except for the second problem
Problem:
1. I can't change the printer settings in V1.1.3 (anymore?). If I
change/create something it will not be saved.
   

Suse packages their own release of OOo so I haven't a clue. Please try
asking on a Suse list/newsgroup.
You wouldn't happen to have a Link eventually? But I'll try that!
2. I can't setup the user settings of V1.1.4. When I use 1.1.4 it can't
save "script.<something>" and another one at the end.
Can't save would appear to me to be a permissions problem.
 

My questions:
1. Is there any permission problem I couldn't figure out yet?
   

Maybe
 

2. Is there any overlapping of those two versions even though they are
installed at different locations?
   

Should not be.
Yeah, thanks, I thought so.
3. Do I have to uninstall V1.1.4 and reinstall V1.1.3 in order to be
able to change the printer settings?
   

I do not think so.
 

4. or how can I upgrade SuSE's V1.1.3 to V1.1.4?
Ask Suse about the upgrade.
I was looking for it already, but maybe not good enough! So I'll try again!
I do have a suggestion for you. Locate the 1.1.4 spadmin and run it as
root. See that you are pointing to the correct postscript printer.
I did this and I can set up the printers correctly and sufficiantly 
under V1.1.4, but it doesn't work for the user changing some settings 
even  though I can edit and print any file with it. As a user I get an 
error message at the end of my OOo V1.1.4 session that it cannot save 
two files (a script.xlc and dialog.xlc) under some circumstances, so 
that I have so set up the settings all time again.

CUPS may be able to help you if your printer is not PS capable.
Thanks again so far.
