------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Jan 26 22:16:59 -0800 2007 ------- I have OO files remotely stored in a file server. When ever I try to double-click the remote file (or right-click, "open with" OpenOffice.org 2.1) the cursor momentarily turns to an hourglass then does nothing after. It is supposed to launch the appropriate OO appl then load the file, isn't it? Things work when I copy the remote file to my local disk and redo the steps enumerated above. I know there is nothing wrong with the network or sharing settings because things work the way they should when doing the same steps on a remote MS Word document (ie, saves the edited document without any error then re-opened reflecting the editions made). I use OpenOffice.org 2.1 on a PC running Windows XP Home Edition vers 2002 SP 2 with an Intel Core 2 CPU, 6300 @ 1.86 GHz with 1 GB RAM The shared folder is in a PC (running Windows XP Home Edition vers 2002 SP 2, on a 5 year old PC) shared through the Sharing tab of the folder's Properties with users allowed to change files. Is there a patch to resolve the issue? Or is there a setting somewhere that I should be aware of? I am currently evaluating OO as an alternative to MS and, so far, things have been working very well until I encountered this issue. Hope you can help. Thanks.
