I can do this. The windows stuff is what I need checking. I have looked again at Yoshi's instructions and the last step before the cautions is confusing. What he said is Run "d:\OOo202rc4\program\soffice.exe" This will set the configuration to User configulations of 2.0.2rc4 are made at C:\Document and Settings\<username>\Application Data \OpenOffice.org2 (Windows XP/2000) whereas I think he meant Run "d:\OOo202rc4\program\soffice.exe" This will set the configuration to User configulations of 2.0.2rc4 are made at C:\Document and Settings\<username>\Application Data\OOo202rc4\ (Windows XP/2000) Or am I misreading? -- PLEASE KEEP MESSAGES ON THE LIST.
