I would like to ask of you all your opinion and experience of Open Ofice
as supplied my Mandrake 9.0 , and installed in the main mandrake installer.

Besides the issue of spellcheckers which we have heard of recently, is there
a completeM9.0 OO install, because for the life of me I cannot find a spreadsheet.

I have the 9.0 install of OOo at home, but use the download from OOo
at school. Both launch the spreadsheet just fine.

I know the download version of OO has a spreadsheet programme
but as far as I can see this mandrake supplied install which does have nice
kstartmenu entries built into the install, does not.

What are you trying to use to start it? If you can get OOo Writer
open, click File, New, Spreadsheet and see if it opens.

If you are in an X window, you can start a terminal, and type:
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/scalc
and wait at least a minute before you give up.

If these things work then you can set up menu items if they somehow
didn't get made. If not it was a faulty installation.

Thanks Jan,

I boobed.
I thought OOcalc was a calculator. I never thought it might of been a spreadsheet.
