Double click the file. OOo Draw will open; let's call this "the original collection". Now open a new drawing. Open the gallery. Create a new theme; I called mine "Logic Gates" (on the General tab). Open this theme. Let's call this "the theme" Now, for each image in the original collection 1. Click within the image and hold down the mouse button; green filled squares will appear around the perimeter of the image and the cursor will change to a cross 2. Drag the image into the theme (top pane). When you've dragged all the images into the theme, shut the original collection and the theme. Now, when you create a new drawing, the theme "Logic Gates" (or whatever you called it) will be available within the gallery. This on Win XP Pro with OOo 2.0.4 I can only assume it's the same on other OS's. Note too that this may be a sub-optimal way of doing it. I found it by experimenting. Others in forum may know a better/faster way ???
