OpenOffice.org 2.0 Snapshot Builds OpenOffice.org Developer Snapshot Build 1.9.m122 1.9.122 is the latest from the "usual" path. Is there somewhere else adventurous folks should look? By the way, I have no trouble importing MS Word documents with 1.9.122 in win98 or Linux environments. A test to see if it is your system or a "neat" Word feature that was used in the document you are trying to import causing the trouble, try creating a simple test word document and then import it into OpenOffice. If the simple document imports, you can use the "divide and conquer" approach to figure out what Word feature is causing the trouble. If the simple document doesn't import, there is something wrong with setup, and I'd try as through a removal and re-installation as possible.
