OpenOffice.org (OOo) is an integrated suite of applications. If
you did not install Writer, then that is your problem. Writer is used
by base to create the forms. If you are going to be doing any
calculations, you will probably need Calc as well. You need to
install at least both of these applications.
Honestly, you might find you have the least amount of problems by
uninstalling OOo using the Control Panel's Add/Remove Programs. Then
install all of OOo. While you may never use Impress (the slide show
application), it will take up less than 5 MB and probably less than 2
MB of disk space. You do need the other applications.
