Tom, if the site you're trying to get ver 1.1.5 from doesn't want to play ball, you can get it from oldapps.com (64 MB). Most of the ver. 2.x series are at that page too, if you ever want to try ver. 2 on Win98. Go to: <http://www.oldapps.com/openoffice.htm> The Sun Java Runtime that works with Win98 and OOo 1.1.5, is also archived there, at: <http://www.oldapps.com/java.htm> The Runtime version I previously used on a Win98 box with OOo 1.1.5 was JRE ver. 1.4.1, although James suggests that vers 1.4.2 is fine (likely it is, and is also archived at oldapps.com). I'm assuming/hoping that the site you're having problems with this, is *not* oldapps.com (its a little oldie goldmine) ;-) Regards, Mike > Mike Dawe wrote: >> James Knott wrote: >> >>> Tom Williamson wrote: >>>> But I was able to find a copy of version of version 2.
