]I am anxious to adopt Open Office on my new Vista computer to avoid the
usurious fees of Microsoft Office. I admire the scope of OO but find it
pretty user unfriendly. I downloaded OO.2 3.org but had to dredge around to
find executeables and eventually found soffice.exe. Who knew openoffice
began with S? It did not appear on my start menu until I pinned it there
myself. The window it presents did not appear to offer clues to other
components but I did eventually discover that loading
an Excel spreadsheet would take me to calc. Following your advice I see that
"new" will take me there too.
Thanks for your advice.

How do I access calc? Is it part of open office? Should I download some

Judging from your question, I'd assume you're running a Mac. All of
OpenOffice is installed on the Mac, but only an icon for Writer appears.
You can open Writer and create whatever document type you wish. Just
click on File > New and make your selection.
