In Tools|Options|OOo|General is a section for "Open/Save dialogs", uncheck "use OpenOffice.org dialogs" and you should get your system dialog. When you 'Open' or 'Save/Save As' right click in the folder pane and you will get an option to 'Show Hidden Files'. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
