Hello Carl Henrik I'm a bit puzzled at how you succeeded in only installing the Writer component only. Where did you get this? Normally, OpenOffice.org comes as a free and complete package from http://download.openoffice.org and includes Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw and Math. Once the dwonload is completed, you doubleclick on the package to install it. It goes normally into your Programs or Applications folder. You access it in Windows through the New > Programs or something alike (under Mac, you can find the OOo folder in Applications, then drag the icon to the Dock to have it handy. The different components open through File > New HTH -- Guy using dutch OOo 2.3 m221 on a iMac Intel DualCore Tiger and brazilian OOo 2.3 RC 3 on a G4 PPC Powerbook Tiger -- please reply only to [email protected] -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches
