I saved the document and opened it. The cursor is to the left of the
first
character on page 1. Curiouser and curiouser. Oh, my OOo (3.1.1 Win XP
Pro)
is EN GB so maybe that has a bearing after all.
as far as I know, this works as intended. Since the original document
was saved by Andrew, you should see the document from the very start.
But, when you make a change and safe this, the next time you open the
same document, your cursor should be at the same position where you
were last.
Have you tried changing something? Does this work now for you? It
should not matter, if you have en-US or en-GB of OOo. It should also
not matter if you have the vanilla or the go-ooo build of
OpenOffice.org.
Andrew, if you want, you can send your test document to me as well.

Sigrid, when I change the document, put the cursor where Andrew had it and
then re-save the document then, when I re-open it the cursor is not at the
beginning and it is *not* where I left it. Instead the cursor is somewhere
before the place I left it.
This seems to be completely broken. Part of the puzzle is that we don't seem
to know what OOo is designed to do in this situation.
When I save a document, the cursor location appears to be saved with the
document. When I open my document again, it is at the original location.
It had never occurred to me that anyone else might see different behavior.
My best guess is that it is probably stored in settings.xml (inside the
document). I did a test.
I saved the document, copied the saved copy, moved the cursor, then
saved again. The cursor was properly positioned in both documents,
irrespective of the document name.
I need to play with my four year old, so I need to stop verifiying what
changed in the settings.xml...
