Re: [newbie] kword crash help sought
Hi, I could start konqueror without any problems. Then I tried kword and exactly the same thing happened. I then tried something else. Clicking on a *.kwd file from konqueror. No associated application was found and I was given the dialog box to choose application to open the file with. Does that make any sense?! thanks!
