In there I highlighted OO.o 3.0 in the list and clicked"Repair" on the toolbar. Surprise - the fix was applied while users were still running OO.o 3.0. It will complete the update on the next restart, though i am not sure what else it will update. All file associations are good across all users before the restart. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
