Here's a perplexing question. I've used OOo 2.4 for several months now without
any problems. All of a sudden last week, OOo 2.4 Calc started acting strange.
You know when you you open a spreadsheet to modify it, if you attempt to exit
that spreadsheet without saving it, you would get a pop up message asking you
if you want to save the changes, discard the changes or cancel? Well all of a
sudden, last week, OOo 2.4 Calc would do that with whatever spreadsheet I'd
open, even if I just wanted to see some data and no changes were made.. I'd
always answer to discard the changes because I had made no changes. Was this
something trying to attach itself to my spreadsheets? My son examined my
options setting and everything was fine. To satisfy my curiosity, I ran my
portable apps OOo vs 2.3.1 Calc and everything worked fine. So I deleted 3.4
from the hard drive and reinstalled 2.3.1 Everything worked great! The next
day, again to satisfy my curiosity, I
reinstalled OOo vs 2.4 and again
2.4 acted up again. Every spreadsheet I opened, not making any modifications at all, Calc would ask me the same "save, discard, cancel" popup. So again, I deleted 2.4 and reinstalled 2.3.1 without any problems.
Any insight?

Check in Tools>Options>OpenOffice.org>General for the box labelled
"Printing sets 'document modified' status" and in
Tools>Options>Load/Save/General for the one labelled "Load printer
settings with the document". If your current printer settings are
different from those saved in the document and if you have the former
box ticked then OOo may regard the document as having changed ...
I have to admit it's a bit of a wild guess but I can't think of anything
else. Perhaps someone else can, please!
