Tom et al.,
I looked at this a while back and discovered that on my Slackware
system, LO and AOO are installed into separate sub-directories in /opt,
with symlinks in /usr/bin with different names pointing to the
appropriate soffice. soffice seems to be some sort of legacy name from
the old

Hi :)
Ahh, there used to be problems but i thought those had all been sorted
out. The trick was to make sure that LO and AOO weren't actively running
at the same time - hence the need to disable the QuickStarter.
If there are still problems with a straight-forwards install alongside

Thanks Tom,
That's most helpful and I note that it also includes the tabs for Mac Users.
It occurs to me that it is probably possible to set up a particular style
for a paragraph; this might be possible with a macro for example. I will
explore these instructions. My wife is still using Open
