Any suggestions on how to put Java on the ME operating > system computer??? I would suggest using a flash stick over a burned CD to copy the JRE you downloaded from one computer to the other. When it comes to updates, it may be better to select the version of OpenOffice.org with the included JRE to download. I turn off Java automatic updates as it is almost as painful as Adobe Reader nagging at me. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
