What do you mean by "it won't work"? How did you try to start it,
and what were the results? OpenOffice.org (OOo) is not the same thing
as MS Office. It has its own names for its components. The word
processor is Writer; the spreadsheet is Calc, and the presentation
component is Impress.
If you have installed OOo, you should be able to find it under
Start > All Programs. Probably, it will be listed as a folder with
the individual components within that folder. Look for the names I
just gave you in that folder.
