I like that ActiveX un-registration process if the association goes to IE.
But is there a DLL or OCX file that I can Register to set all the File
Assocaitions to the
various OpenOffice programs ?
This is a little bit late for you, but this should be done when
installing OOo. One of the windows during installation has four
checkboxes labeled with four of the MS Office programs. If they are
checked during installation, the MS Office files are associated with OOo.
