I scrolled through it without a problem.
I saved the file as DL2.odt. This new file DL2.odt opens perfectly by
clicking on its icon or from within OpenOffice Writer. Whatever was
causing the problem has been fixed.
From this experience it appears that good general advice might be that
if you have any difficulty opening a file in OpenOffice, try opening it
as "Read-only".
I tried that and it was as you said.
But when I tried to save the file, I got a "general input/output error" message.
Funny. The save worked the second try! Don't you just love computers!!
Glad it worked out for you. I do wish to tell you that on-line at
<http://www.mccc.edu/pjh/OOo/DL.odt> contains no Pictures directory and
that contents.xml does point to it.
It still has problems. The original file, with embedded pictures, was over 500K
and I didn't want anyone to have to download that so I tried to strip the
pictures out of it and post the result.
I'll upload the original huge file to the same folder as DL_and_I_2.odt if
you're interested.
Thanks.
