So you are using OOo1.1.x. Wish you had said so and I also wish that you had told us which Windows release with which you need help. As I told you in a previous message, you can use soffice.exe with a module name to specify. That is you specify the module as a parameter. Under Linux, this would be soffice -writer followed by the filename or placeholder. IIRC, this is also true on Windows. Try Windows help for sorting out how to specify parameters as I don't remember. -- PLEASE KEEP MESSAGES ON THE LIST.
