I seldom use windows anymore so I can't offer a test. However, you might try: <http://documentation.openoffice.org/online_help/htmlhelp/text/shared/guide/ms_doctypes.html> and the Setup Guide: http://documentation.openoffice.org/setup_guide2/index.html In the English version see the Windows and Customizing sections. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
