Hello Rui, Very strange behavior! I could understand that your Mac would say you don't have enough privileges to throw away a program (log in as admin would solve that one). Did you do a restart? In that way you're sure that the program isn't running. Dragging the icon in the dock to the trash shouldn't be a problem either, even if the program is running. Why couldn't you use OpenOffice.org on your Mac? We're always interested in knowing about problems other users have with the program, in order to help each other better, and give the developers the opportunity to improve the program. I use it all the time on 3 different Macs, and have no significant problems... It would be interesting to know where you downloaded from, what you downloaded, what kind of Mac and OS you have, and finally what kept you from using OOo. You know there's a Portuguese OOo site: http://pt.openoffice.org ? Success, -- Guy using dutch OOo Aqua 3.0.0 Beta-2 on a iMac Intel DualCore Tiger and brazilian OOo Aqua 3.0.0 Beta-2 on an Intel MacBook Pro Leopard -- please reply only to [email protected] -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches
