All I want to do is open some WKS spreadsheets
If that WKS spreadsheet is from:
* Microsoft Works, then download OxygenOffice from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ooop/;
* Deskmate, then hire somebody to write a program to convert them to ODF;
* Apple ][, then hire somebody to write a program to convert them to ODF;
* Lotus 123, then your current version of OOo _should_ open it. (I've
forgotten which versions of Lotus 123 OOo can open. However, the WKS
file specifications were stable for most of its life on Dos and OS/2.)
* Something else, then we'll need more data, but it probably will
require writing a program to convert it to ODF format.
I get a display in arabic with no menu option to change the display.
Assuming you are using OOo, then:
>Tools >Options >Language >Language Settings >User Interface, and
select English, or whatever language you want the UI to be in, from the
drop down menu.
I don't have an Arabic UI on this installation, so I can't do a screen
shot showing what/where those commands are.
All this and 30 minutes to download everything after paying $29.95.
I don't know who you paid your $29.95 to, but I'd suggest contacting
them for support.
[email protected] is a mailing list, whose respondents volunteer
their time and energy to helping people use OpenOffice.org.
OOo itself is distributed gratis from http://download.openoffice.org/.
