I am using version 2.2 of Open Office. My problem is that it just
wont open. Five seconds ago it was working fine. I closed it. and
now it wont open at all. I tried looking through the user guide to
see if any problem like this is addressed, but I guess its easy to
miss something in 506 pages.
Sorry to bother you and Thank You for making such a great free
software!

No bother, we're here to help.
Have you tried examining the running processes to see if OpenOffice is
still running in the background. Killing that off might help.

This may seem like sacrilege but if I were having that problem I would
shut down my computer and bring it back up (after I first followed
John Meyer's advice)
I guess you don't run Linux. Having to shut down a Linux system to
resolve a software problem is a very *RARE* occurrence. I generally
leave my main computer running all the time and often go for months
without a reboot and then it's a) due to a kernel update or hardware
change or b) I shut down the wrong computer (easy to do when you remote
access another computer. <g>). The longest I've had a Linux box up was
about two years. It was my firewall, which was shut down because it was
being replaced.
I was thinking of more of Windows. The only reason that I suggested
that was that I had something similar happen with firefox on a few
occasions, and killing off the runaway processes allowed it to re-launch
for some reason.
And you're right on Linux. There, if that did happen for some strange
reason I'd first try to ps the processes and kill off the relavant
processes.

I was thinking of Windows, also, which is what I use, and I guess I was
following on what John Meyer said.
Based on James Knott's info on Linux it would seem that this type of
issue should not occur on Linux. If it did it seems that it might be
one of the *RARE* occurrences that might need a reboot. But, what would
need to be done before you took that route on Linux?
