Go to: http://download.openoffice.org/2.0.0/index.html and download the Linux(x86) package (tar.gz) and follow the instructions given here: http://download.openoffice.org/2.0.0/instructions.html > Thank you. > > Tom HTH Dave -- Registered Linux User #288562 http://counter.li.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
