Hi Thomas, I'm not Barbara, but she did in fact respond to this, with: "The last I know of, you'd gotten information about how to find or recreate your OOo installation files, and try a reinstall/repair on your Windows 7/OOo 32. system. Has that gotten you anywhere? Have you been able to create and later edit another spreadsheet?" The error message you received when you tried to 'Repair' the installation indicates that your original installation source files are gone, so you will need to re-download the Openoffice installation files, and when that error appears, navigate to the location of the recently downloaded/unzipped installation files, to allow the repair install to continue. Also, as you can now see, in the future, it is not a good idea to delete those files. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
