Hi I tried to simulate the situation you describe, but it only happens on my iMac when I have an OOo document minimized in the Dock... • Do you ever get to see the blue starting-up window with the two gulls and a blue line indicating progress of opening the program - otherwise I'm afraid OOo wasn't installed properly, in which case you better de- and re-install... • Have you tried starting OOo by control-clicking (or right-clicking) on a text document (or spreadsheet, presentation, etc.), chosing 'Open with' and indicating OOo as the application to work with? -- Guy
