Have you done that? if yes, then it must be in the start menu (the headers of your message suppose you use windows 7). you may also search for 'soffice' on your disk and create a shortcut for the 'soffice.exe' file that you hopefully find. --- List Conduct Guidelines: http://openoffice.apache.org/list-conduct.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org

Many Thanks, Leon Fager You don't mentioned what operating system you're using, but it's certainly easy enough in Windows. Just work your way through the Start menu until you find the OpenOffice icon. Then right click on it and select Send to Desktop. --- List Conduct Guidelines: http://openoffice.apache.org/list-conduct.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
