------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Apr 13 22:54:21 +0000 2008 ------- Helo Of, I think you misunderstood, or maybe I wasn't clear enough; My suggestion was not that at install time Openoffice should default to saving in MSO file formats. (I do believe that users should easily be able to switch to a default behaviour of saving in MSO file formats through a simple check box in the save dialogue, but provided a notice in the save dialogue warns users against it). My suggestion is simply that for any MSO file extension that OO can handle, but is not already handled by an installed copy of MSO, the installer should, *by default* - without the user having to make any settings changes, associate that file type with OO. By extension of this, if the installed version of OO is old enough to not support xlsx and docx, the OO installer should, by default, associate these with OO. To put it another way, if a user has Microsoft Office installed on their system, the user should need to click some check boxes at install time to tell the installer they want Openoffice to become the default handler for the MSO file types. If the user doesn't have Microsoft Office installed on their system, the user should need to click some check boxes to tell the installer they *don't* want OO to become the default handler for the file types. That way, I believe the installer will guess what the user wants 90% of the time, and still give the user complete control at install time. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
