I have no idea about Tiger nor Mint. but I guess OpenOffice.org behaves the same as in other OSs like Linux and Win. The user settings are stored in the user directory, and you can find where it is going to Tools - Options - OpenOffice.org - Paths See for example the AutoText entry, its path is * on Linux: /home/ariel/.openoffice.org/3/user/autotext this means all user configuration is stored in /home/ariel/.openoffice.org/3/user/ * on Windows: C:\Documents and Settings\ariel\Datos de programa\OpenOffice.org\3\user\autotext this means all my user settings are on C:\Documents and Settings\ariel\Datos de programa\OpenOffice.org\3\user\ Notice that both /home/ariel/.openoffice.org C:\Documents and Settings\ariel\Datos de programa are hidden folders, in Mac it may be the same. Writer's toolbar settings are under /home/ariel/.openoffice.org/3/user/config/soffice.cfg/modules/swriter/toolbar/ path-to\OpenOffice.org\3\user\config\soffice.cfg\modules\swriter\toolbar\ Regards -- Ariel Constenla-Haile La Plata, Argentina
