OpenOffice Portable

Hi,
since I mainly use the portable apps on my home pc (I know this is not the intended use for it) I would like to associate some file types directly with the right OpenOfficePortable App. But this seems to be not easy/impossible. All these commands always opens the filter selection first:
OpenOfficeCalcPortable.exe "%1"
OpenOfficePortable.exe -calc "%1"
OpenOfficeCalcPortable.exe -calc "%1"

So, is there another solution than using soffice.exe -calc "%1" or scalc.exe "%1" directly?

I downloaded the German version of OpenOffice Portable 2.3.1 Rev 2 and want to upgrade my old 2.2.1 OOP on a U3-USB-Stick. On that stick I run the Portable Apps Menu and that is where I call "Options" and then "Install a new app...". I get a DOS-Window opening but closing so fast that I'm unable to read the error-message. Nothing happens after that.
I also tried to run the downloaded file as an administrator (right-click and run as admin) but to no success.
What's the problem?

hello

more a complaint than a bug, however:

Pathsettings within OOO can not be edited anymore since they use a GUI for the settings.
This is a conceptual problem. Using the OpenOfficePortable.ini for trying to build a CD-Version will not work, as the default path-setting containes the User-name, no good, and it can not be altered to "document.../all users/..." by direct edit.

Some advice available ?

I'm fully aware of that OpenOffice.org is not supported on Windows NT (just like it's not supported on Windows 95). Still, since I read about the existence of a patch for Windows 95 on the OpenOffice.org Portable Support page, I'd like to ask whether someone is aware of a similar patch for Windows NT. If so, I would really appreciate know about that.

Hi guys,
First of all, I know that people have reported this problem before and I've read ALL the posts regarding this issue. However...it just doesn't recognized the portable java. It needs to be pointed towards it from the "tools-options". The java on my stick is 1.5.0_12 and the one installed on computer is 1.6.0_03.
I did everything that John & others have suggested to the guys that had this problem in the previous posts, but...it just doesn't work for me!What the heck is going on?

Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Thanks a lot!

is it possible to download just a single application (for exemple, impress) and not the complete suite?

I have downloaded OOO 2.3, install in a hard drive first,
and if install path have spaces, it fails to start (error window).
If install path have no spaces, works fine.

Later, you can move to install path with spaces and remains
working ok.

I posted here because did not find a bug forum.

Hi!

A while ago I was prompt for an update. Yet the update agent took me to the official OO site and suggested that I will upgrade to the official latest stable version (2.3). I would like to know that a new official version has been released. Yet I would also like to be told when a new version is avialble at portableApps.com will. In short, how can I customize Tools -> Options -> Online Update to also check a portableApps.com URL? If it is not possible to add a URL, can I replace the current URL with another one?
I don't mind editing a text file.

Are there going to be any updates?
