Hi All It started simple. I did not like the OO 2.0 Icons. To me thy are hard to see and hard to identify which is which. So having OO 2.0 in a Linux box I simply changed them to some I felt were more apposite. Distinctive different colors, sizes, and shapes for the three basic functions I use word, spreadsheat, and data base. I then copped those png files to windows where I was able to view them in the Photo Editor as icon files. I then tried to change the OO 2.0 icons.
First problem is that when I right click on the OO 2.0 icons to change icons just as one would do with any other icon one wants to change in Windows the change icon tab indicated that that feature was not available. So how does one change icons with out the change icon feature? Simple one forms a new link to the application. Did that. Which started issue number 2. Copied new png icons into correct location where other OO 2.0 icons are located and then attempted to change icons in new link application to the Linux png icons. Windows would not recognize the new icons. So how is one to enter a new icon into Windows? Not to be out done since the new icons were simply to make things equal and readable went to Windows icons which are installed by MS and used one of them for writer. Then, tried to link desktop icon to opening application. Could not. How does one link desktop applications to the correct file in OO 2.0 so that the application will open? Note do not have this issue with other applications just OO 2.0. Currently using preset icons which are not bad but simply hard to distinguish on these old eyes.
