Thanks for the comments so far on this thread. I want to make one wording change, to using
"Some OpenOffice operations use Java Runtime (JRE). A suitable JRE is not installed. For details http://openoffice.org/java.html" The statement "unavailable" is too broad. All that is known is one is not installed on the configuration where the message is produced. - Dennis PS: Has anyone found where the resource is in the code base?

A suitable JRE is unavailable. For details http://openoffice.org/java.html" I am proposing this to avoid the various cases that arise, not just the 32-bit on x64 Windows case. It would be great to look at how this wording works for non-native English speakers and also how easily it is translated for localization. Any simpler way to say this? - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Rory O'Farrell [mailto:ofarr...@iol.ie] Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2014 23:55 To: dev@openoffice.apache.org Subject: Re: Java 32 [ ... ] "A Java Runtime (JRE) is needed for some operations using OpenOffice. If using 64 bit version of Windows, a 32 bit Java must be installed to work with OpenOffice. See >> <helpful URL>." I read through the text at the target URL: my thoughts are that it is over-complex and (specifically) didn't mention the problem of the bit-matching. Remember that our major User-base is of Windows Users, many of whom are using older machines running XP(32), Win 7(32). I may re-read the text at that URL later, but can't guarantee it - my central heating has died and I have to go investigate - I fear it is serious!
