Not sure if i'm on the right track here from the original post, but it would be
a lot more convenient and less complicated if, when trying to install a new
version of OOo (say updating the beta versions), you didn't have to uninstall
the older version before installing the newer. Otherwise, you end up with
multiple entries in Add/Remove Programs, and shortcuts from the older version
become broken when trying to run the new.

i use a custom Windows toolbar with OOo shortcuts in it. i've installed several
beta versions and each time i have to replace old shortcuts in that toolbar with
the shortcuts created in my Start Menu because the older ones are "broken".

i think the idea here is to install a newer version OVER a previous, not
alongside. If i choose to install to the same path with the same options, i
still get the multiple A/R Program entries and dead shortcuts. This happens on
both of my WinXP machines.

Lastly, because i have to manually uninstall in order to update, i also have to
go through all the Welcome info entry stuff every time. Can't that be stored, or
at least an option be offered during uninstall to keep or drop the information?

Sorry, long-winded, but i hadn't seen much else on these items and this seemed
relevant. If i'm way off, my apologies.
