I didn't know there was a legal way to download Microsoft Word! How did you pull that off? Not only that, but MS Word doesn't natively, nor by default if the plugin is installed, want to save in ODF. (Open Document Format). I'm thinking you mean that you want OpenOffice Writer to be your primary Word processor? I'm also curious about what OpenOffice Writer "can't" do that apparently Word can. I haven't found anything generally that Writer is short on. I use it for Sermon Prep, and outlining very often, and I use MS Word at work. However, if in fact you want a lower quality Word Processor to be your primary, then in Windows, if you right click on a document (file.doc) and select "open with" you should have an option to choose. I'm not in Windows, so I'm having to go from memory. After you choose MS Word, click on the check box at the bottom that says something to the affect of "use this choice as the default" or "Always use this application". and then click OK. -- See Ya' Howard Coles Jr. John 3:16! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
