Hi

Thanks for the quick response.  

Background:

I work in one office using Windows 2000 but I don't have administrative 
privilege and can't install OpenOffice 2.0.  I also work part time in a 
charitable organization using Windows XP.  The charitable organization is 
switching to OpenOffice and I'd like to like to learn to use OpenOffice on my 
lunch break at the Windows 2000 office.  So I read some of one of the setup 
guides and used “setup/a” on a  Windows XP machine to install OpenOffice 2.0 in 
a folder and then copied it to a flash drive.  I took the flash drive to the 
Windows 2000 office and OpenOffice loads fine but its only able to work with 
existing files.  If I create a new writer file and try to save it, it will not 
save.  I can't convert MS Word files to Writer files either.

I think I must has done something wrong and as a result the flash drive version 
of OpenOffice can't fine some files it needs to “save as” and to save new files.

I hope this explanation is more helpful.

Thanks for your help.

Steve
