RE: Open office for mobile devices
Thank you so much for your time and assistance. I must say you were so soon in replying I'm somewhat shocked. That also goes along with why I love open office better than any and all other office type programming, thank you again, Michael L.

RE: Open office for mobile devices
The phones run on a different hardware platform. An x86 or x64 version of OpenOffice will not run on it. The Acer m220 has a Qualcomm Snapdragon ARM processor, and that Windows Phone 8.1 processor will not run Windows desktop (x86 or x64) applications. There is no separate distribution of Apache OpenOffice that is available for Windows Phone 8.1 or Windows 10 Phones. The same applies for iPhones, iPads, and Android devices. At this time, there is no roadmap for producing such versions of Apache OpenOffice. To see if there is anything that supports OpenDocument Format (ODF) documents to any degree, it is necessary to go to the Store/Marketplace on the phone and see what might be available. Please note that even if there appears to be some relationship to OpenOffice (documents), Apache OpenOffice has no knowledge of that software and cannot support it. It is more likely that your best choice is to use the Microsoft Office applications that come with Windows 8.1 Phone and interchange them with others (and your desktop computer) using OneDrive. If you use the same account on the phone as on the desktop computer, you should be able to edit those documents via OneDrive on the Web without having to install Microsoft Office on the desktop PC. You will have to experiment to see how those files, if brought down to your PC, work with Apache OpenOffice. You can also move documents to OneDrive and see how well they work on your phone using the provided Microsoft Software. - Dennis -Original Message- From: Rory O'Farrell [mailto:ofarr...@iol.ie] Sent: Wednesday, August 19, 2015 00:58 To: users@openoffice.apache.org Cc: Michael L.
