I prefer the wording proposed by Matt Needles in August 2004. I've filed an issue by borrowing the wording I put into 4414 last August. I don't do Windows, so I haven't seen the dialog myself. Issue 46347: Clearer Explaination Needed in the File Associations Dialog ===== The most frequent complaint seen on the users' lists is "Help! Your program has taken over my computer!" Either the description needs to be made more clear, or making OOo the default for MSO file types should be defered until runtime. Suggested wording from Matt Needles in August 2004: "OpenOffice.org can open MS Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents. Another program is currently assigned this task on your system. Do you want OpenOffice.org to be the default program to open these files when you open them from Windows Explorer? If you choose NO, you may still open these files from within OpenOffice.org." ===== I encourage anyone who is interested to add comments and vote early and often. -- Mac :}) ** I usually forward private questions to the appropriate mail list. ** Ask Smarter: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.
