Both commands gave error messages that the command could not be found.
I did the command from within the folder where the swriter binary is
located.

Done. Although now that the Fedora 13 > 14 upgrade has taken place I
probably have the wrong ure file.

This worked, but threw errors on three packages, all with UNO in the
name.

Installed two or three packages, then errored out that everything else
was already installed. 

I think you meant "rpm," not "yum." Yum would get everything from the
repos. Rpm would install the packages in the folder, right?

So I repeated yum erase openoffice.org* and then did rpm --install
openoffice.org. This errored out on failed dependencies (oobasis3.2*).

Then I decided to install with the setup script. I did ./setup. I got:

I didn't get this far. But at least now I know to install the one for
Redhat when I finally get OOo reinstalled.

Gracias por la ayuda. Now I understand what caused the mess when I
upgraded Fedora 13 to Fedora 14, and I have fixed the exclusions so it
doesn't happen again. But I still need help to get OOo reinstalled.
