------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Apr 13 11:14:25 +0000 2008 ------- I regularly install OO on windows machines. Often enough, in fact, for the change in OO 2.4 to be very welcome - the pre-selection of xls and ppt file associations in the windows installer dialog box. I would welcome a post-install file associations manager, but suspect that for many users they just wont 'get it'. The idea and concept of file association is just too technical for them. Yes really! That is how brittle I observe many user's understanding of computers is! I feel that in the windows installer. all checkboxes for MSO file types should be checked by default, UNLESS the installer detects MSO installed, where they should by default be unchecked. Furthermore, docx, xlsx (and when operational, pptx) file types should be associated with OO unless a version of MSO 2007 or later is already installed. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
