Hi,
Just wondering if this is standard operating procedure and if so how
to tell when it's going to happen:
I have an MS Word 2002 created, 68 Meg file, actually a User Manual,
comprised of images, text and tables with text (not images), toc and
index.
I can not get OOo to open it in Text mode. Ooo insists on opening
it in Calc instead, which of course makes the file conversion
useless.
if the file has a .csv extension, Calc would try to open it.
I can copy/paste from one document to the other, but all I get for
the images are placeholders with a path to the image in them. I
can't make it show the images.
you've been at Tools - Options - OOo Writer - View? "Display graphics"
is enabled?
Am I missing something simple here?
Thanks in Advance,
Twayne
Sounds like a problem with the configuration of either
OOo or Windows.
Possible I suppose but I think not very likely; all ts'ing OK that way.
Simplest first, would be to remove and reinstall OOo.
Already done.
If that doesn't help..., there are ways to fix other
configurations but without knowing or finding what is
misconfigured, I usually just end up reinstalling
Windows.
in case of trouble, there are the installation files and - in a
different directory - the user configuration files. Normally, a
re-install only replaces the first set of files, while it is more likely
to find the error inside the second set of files - see also the blog at
