The file contains only a Word formula. OOo can't grok the formula because OOo's formula syntax is utterly different. I could swear Writer displayed the formula last time I opened it. Maybe the import filter for 3.01 can't do it any more. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
