No there is no "just the word-processing" part of OOo. In simple terms, all the components (word-processor, spreadsheet, etc) rely on a large core module, which forms the bulk of the download package. When you install OOo you can select a "custom" install and elect to just install the word-processor (Writer), but the space savings are minimal. I am making the assumption that your question arises because you have a dial-up Internet connection. If this is the case, I suggest that you might ask a friend with a high speed connection to download OOo and burn it to CD for you. Alternatively, you can get the current stable version 1.1.4 on CD at minimal cost, see: http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/ HTH Dave --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
