You don't delete OpenOffice.org files through Writer. You delete
OpenOffice.org files the same way you delete any other files on your
computer - via the Operating System. Assuming you are using Windows,
that means by browsing to the file in Windows Explorer, selecting
the file by clicking on it and pressing the delete key or using the
File>Delete menu option.
Actually you can, via the open file panel, where you can right click &
delete.
Thats because the "Open..." and "Save As..." dialogue boxes are both
effectively cut down versions of Windows Explorer Supplied by the OS
functions to the Program. It also helps to:
* keep uniformity from program to program if they use this supplied OS
functionality.
* reduce coding needed by the program (using supplied OS calls instead)
It also works in Linux. The nice thing about this method is that it puts
you where your documents are, instead of having to navigate to them.
