I see this kind of thing very frequently on this list. I'll comment just this one time regarding the generic problem. Caleb's answer is not enough for people who have to use dial up connection for downloads. What is needed is a separable download composed of a core module and individual application modules for Writer, Base, Impress, Math, Draw, and Calc. I realize that this would open the door to incompatibilities but it ought not to be that difficult to resolve that issue. Furthermore, this functionality should not be only for Windows users. -- Jim --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
