This is absolutely false. May we ask where you got that information? > Will it change all of my Word docs to .odt documents? OpenOffice does include a function to do this (see below on why it could be a wise move) but you have to explicitly tell the program to do it. The default file association may change (that is the default program used to open .doc files) but there are ways to avoid it, although I don't know them personally (I only use the Linux operating system) Some basic reading on office file formats and why it is better to avoid the ones of Microsoft Office: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8616 http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/9594#mpart8 Best Regards, Marco Fioretti -- Your own civil rights and the quality of your life heavily depend on how software is used *around* you: http://digifreedom.net/node/84 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
