I'm using OO2rc on Mandrake 10.0.

For the last little while I've had many of the files with .odt

does not load them on OO.

They can still be loaded by going through OpenOffice, but it is an
annoyance.

This may well be a Linux problem.

Whatever it is, can anyone give me some guidance here?

Thanks,

It is probably a file association problem. If you use KDE as I do, Applications > System > Configuration > KDE > Components > File Associations >application. (Applications is the Gold start in the bottom left corner.)
     The OOo 2.0 are oasis based so they all in the form of
vnd.oasis.opendocument.* where the "*" stands for formula, text, etc.


Thanks. Unfortunately, I can get all the way through to *>application, but vnd.oasis* does not appear to exist. Nearest I get is vnd.str (which refers to star) which handles all the sxw and so on files.

Any other notions?
