Thanks for the help. Unfortunately, I the problem isn't the Quickstarter,
as that was the first thing that I disabled after installing the program.
Strange thing is, I never had problems with the option settings using Win98,
only with WinXP.

I'm not sure about such an old version of OpenOffice (OO) but in modern
versions (we're on 2.1 at the moment) there is a thing called the
Quickstarter which gets in the way when one tries to have OO remember
option settings. If it is running on your XP system there will be an
icon for it in the System Tray (probably bottom right of your screen).
The icon will be blue/grey and have flying birds, the sort drawn by
kids, on it. Right click on the icon and choose Exit. Then open Writer
from the Start>All Programs>OpenOffice menu, change your settings and
close Writer. Now when you open Writer again (same method) your options
should have "stuck".
