I have created a shell script file so that I will not forget how
to do this. Then I run the script file. Here is the file I used to
install the latest OOo release for DEB:
#!/bin/sh
cd /home/dan/Downloads/OOo/OOO320_m18_native_packed-1_en-US.9502/DEBS
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
cd desktop-integration/
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
Notes:
1) First I download the file into /home/dan/Downloads/OOo. Then I
extract it. Then I run the script file.
2) The last two lines of the script file installs the latest OOo into
the Menu.
3) The real answer to your question is:
In a file browser window, locate the OOo downloaded file. Double click
this file to begin the extraction process. (I find this easier than
the command line.
Using the command line, enter the DEBS folder. Then use the following
commands
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
cd desktop-integration/
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
4) By having a shell script file, I find I only have to change some of
the numbers on line 2 to install the latest version.

I thought of something a few weeks ago.
I created a folder called "my-install" to be the place where all my software
resides that I install via terminal actions.
This way I will not have a folder in my downloads folders that might have
some software running from it. This happens a lot, it seems when I install
something in Ubuntu.
