If you have Gnome then you also have Nautilus. Open Nautilus (file browser), right click on the xls file, select properties, select Open With. If OOo Calc isn't there, add it; Add+. If OOo Calc isn't listed in your programs, then click Custom Command and browser your way to scalc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
