No, you've got it a bit wrong. ODF specifies the Open Document Format, which include ODT for text documents, ODS for spreadsheets etc. You should never see a file with the ODF extension, as there's no such thing, at least not with OpenOffice. How did you solve the problem? -- Use OpenOffice.org <http://www.openoffice.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
