I don't think that you answered my questions. I think that I need root permission to install OO in a system directory. But I don't have root permission. So I want to install OO in my home directory. I'm not how the webpage that you mentioned is relevant to my problem. Anyway, I read the following section. But I don't find ooo-dev* in the OOO310_m11 directory of OO source code. http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Run_OOo_versions_parallel#User_directory_configuration_for_3..2A_versions --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
