As per spec, they are changeable only in custom installation and under the "modify" installation. Thanks of! For the rest i can't see other differences with OOo-2.4.x. Thank you for reintroducing this functionality and let's wait for OOo 3.3! - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I've run custom setup but i cannot see any dialog where i can set file association, as described in: http://quaste.services.openoffice.org/index.php?option=com_tcs&task=tcs_show&tcsid=3112 Nor i can see any file type dialog if i choose "modify" on the already installed OOo. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

The updated spec seems to address the most common cases and it's clearly better than now. But what i really cannot understand is why you are cutting out a working and a more precise functionality to a limited one. At work we have some Win2000 PCs that we are trying to switch to OpenOffice. Initially i've installed OOo side by side, leaving untouched the file associations to MSO97 and keeping free the user to test OOo. After some time i've switched the file associations to OOo to see how they feel. Some of them asked me to switch back to Excel because some feature they use works better. With the new spec i can only switch back *ALL* the file association to MSO (or change file associations manually), while now i can only proceed manually and before 3.x we can tweak every single association, restoring Excel association and leaving all the rest to OOo. To me the differences between 2.x and the updated spec are a reduction in flexibility with apparent no real advantage. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Many of us has understood the rationale behind the spec, but what consider frustrating is that an useful interface was removed leaving the users on your own. If the choises done by setup are not what the user wants, then he is leaved alone. The spec cite an msi option but: - it is a all or nothing option (i cannot associate, for example, only the PowerPoint extensions); - it is a hidden option (i have to know about that); - it gives no feedback (will i have written it correctly?); - it is frustrating because i have to understand where and how to put that option. If you are worried about the user who associate the MSO options without knowing what they are doing, why not to put out that choice from the default setup path (for example under a "Change file association..." button) or, at least, render the previous useful and already working interface, visible when i do a repair or modify setup? Kind regards. Cesare. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I cannot understand what's wrong in setting the installer default behaviour as is now but let the user the option to modify the associations to his needs. At least in the "Repair option". The user that don't know what is doing will not modify the default settings, while the others can tweak them without going mad. Disappointed.
