The olny thing I can suggest is to take a look at where the backup is going,
and see if a similar priviledges problem is occuring. It may not be anywhere
on the SO directory structure, or your own directory structure. (Perhaps
/tmp or /temp for example).

Try running StarOffice from Root, backup a file, and look where it's putting
them.

Dear Axalon:

Thanks so much for the suggestion, but I am unsure what I should
actually do. Should I add "cp -a" somewhere in StarOffice?

I know I can always just copy the file in xterm and backup manually. But
why in the world would StarOffice now save perfectly but not do a
backup? Any idea?
