Hello Andy,
My son, who is a computer wizard has disabled Open Office 3 from the
"start up", I think it was in the program files. Since he has done what
he has done, I have SUCCESSFULLY installed 3.1! Thank you for your kind
help and assistance

Yes, I have to agree, it is weird! The notice I have been getting on
screen, says "The installed product does not match the installation
source(s). Until a matching source is provided or the installed
product and source are synchronized, this action cannot be
performed." I have since tried removing my version 3 through "Add and
remove programs" and I cannot remove it. I have downloaded 3.1 again,
tried to install it again, and another notice has told me to close
version 3 and and close the quickstarter, as you suggested, I have
done this, and again makes no difference. I don't think it likes me!
I run XP.
Have you installed it over a previous version, or was it a clean
install? Thank you for you help and suggestions so far. I am still
trying!! Trying to think what to try next. One part of me says to
forget it, on the other hand, I do not like to be beaten!
It has been awhile since I upgraded to 3.1 but I had problems as well.
I went in and deleted all references to OpenOffice.org from the
registry and from the /program files/ . I did not delete anything
from the /users/ area so retained all the personal settings. I am not
sure what was causing the problem but this worked for me also running
XP sp2 at the time.
Hope this helps.
