Hi, I reinstalled the WinXP version WITH the JRE from the website. It did the exact same thing, and as you said, it asked to recover a file on loadup. It did just kick me to the desktop without warning. When I went to Wizards then Letters it did it again, after this installation. That is with the JRE supposedly. I checked the folders and there seems to be plenty of Java files, etc... there. I have Java 6 update 2 and 3 indicated in my Add/delete programs. So I had Java installed last time. But the icons don't show when I load the Writer. It seems to be the Wizards section, the buttons on the toolbars seem to work, and the other pulldown menus, although I have not checked all of them. The FAX wizard kicked me also. Web Page kicked me too. So some of the Wizards work, some don't. When I click to Draw from START menu, it went into Writer. When I did finally get in to DRAW, when I resize a picture and click on the picture, I get kicked also. So this is with Java installed, and the JRE version. So like I said, unreliable. AT LEAST FOR ME. Any Suggestions??? Steve ======================================================
