In OpenOffice 2.x User Guide, Chapter 13: XML Enhancements
(Page 446 in draft 23)
There is a method to save OpenDocument files as xml text (instead of the
zipped format)
Using Tools > XML Filter Settings
I have used this method successfully to open / save OpenDocument text
files in version OpenOffice.org 2.0, on WinXp.
Changing Tools > Options "Default File Format" Text Document="Flat XML Text"
Under OOo 2.0 the file would open correctly with the XML filter being
used both from the File>open dialog, and from opening via windows
explorer association.
Having just un-installed OOo 2.0 & installed OOo 2.2:
With OOo 2.2, the XML filters save the file correctly, but from the File
> open dialog / Windows explorer association, OOo2.2 opens the Flat XML
file as plain text.
When using the File>Open Dialog : If I change the "Files of Type" in the
File/open dialog to "Flat XML Text", the XML file is opened correctly
using the XML filter.
How do I either:
1) Change the Windows explorer File Association, so that files with the
chosen .xml extension when opening in OOo 2.2, force use of the "Flat
XML Filter" (ie. what's the command line to tell OOo2.2 the Filter type
to use when opening the file)?
2) Ideally, get OOo2.2 to always use the correct XML Filter for this
given .xml file type / extension.
Thanks in advance,
Jay.
