Thanks, but I must be too stupid to figure this out.

In a terminal I typed "which soffice" and nothing happened. No error messages, 
nada. It was like giving a command that executed without problems. It did not 
tell me the path to spadmin.

I did a search from / and found:

file:///home/jjj/.openoffice/1.1.3/spadmin
file:///usr/lib/openoffice2/program/spadmin
file:///usr/lib/openoffice2/program/spadmin.bin
file:///usr/lib/openoffice/program/spadmin.bin
file:///usr/lib/openoffice2/program/spadmin.bin.real

So evidently it is there. Which is the executable?
