Open up WindowsExplorer file utility. Manuever to the C:\ directory. Look for find, search or something similar in the menus. Enter OOo_1.1.4* as the file to search for. If this doesn't result, see if you have other drives, D: \, E:\, etc. Unless it got erased, it should be visible somewhere. When you find it, use the WinZip utility to open it and do an extract and install, I think it's called. Good luck in your hunting. Most of us have been there before. Very frustrating to know you have it but not be able to locate it. Happens more often as the years go by. Keep telling myself to take notes, but I forget. :-) regards, Richard. > This program was highly recommended to me by my son, a college Library > Director and Information Mgt professional.
