------- Additional comments from rbse...@openoffice.org Thu May 13 19:12:08 +0000 2010 ------- When I intially installed open office in 2006 1.x or 2.x I am unsure the version, I opted to have the MS Office file types open in Open Office as I at that time did not believe we would put ms office on the machine. Later in 2008 we installed Ms Office Student and home 2007. Ms office registered its file types accordingly. I have since updated open office twice (the second time after uninstalling open office first to attempt eliminating the registration of ms office types to open office ). Both times open office registered doc, ppt, xls etc types to open with open office, even though ms office already had them registered. Both times I have had to go into explorer and change the open with to ms office. We have win xp sp 3. I have seen in documentation that open office 3.x is not supposed to have this behavior when ms office has file types registered. The version of open office we currently have installed is 3.2. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
