Hello Angus, We're always interested to know what people don't like about OpenOffice.org. We like it and want to help improve it... Your problem is more an issue for Apple. I propose you do a restart and try again to get rid of the dmg and the installed program. You can use a cleaning program, or simply Spotlight to locate and trash parts of OOo. There's the OOo folder in Applications, and another OOo folder in the Library/Application Support. If you want to trash X11 too (although that is needed for other programs you might use, like the Gimp), it sits in Applications/Utilities. HTH -- Guy using dutch OOo Aqua 3.0.0 RC2 on a iMac Intel DualCore Tiger and brazilian OOo Aqua 3.0.0 RC2 on an Intel MacBook Pro Leopard -- please reply only to users@openoffice.org -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches
