Can't Move other Launchers and just leave Writer on menu

Submitted by orb9220 on March 18, 2007 - 5:54am

Why can't I move all the other launcher's to a temp folder so that only the writer shows up in menu?

When I move them all except the writer to a temp folder I created in OpenOffice then refresh the writer still shows but won't launch.

What does the other launcher's being moved have to do with the writer since it was not touched and won't launch when it is by itself.

If I move the launchers back then the writer works again.

This is not logical.
Am I missing something?

Any Help is appreciated.

I have no menu titles..

Hoping someone could help me...
I just D/l Open Office to hard drive. In all apps I have no TITLES visable in top toolbar (such as file, edit, tools). Also below that in the app toolbars there are button boxes and arrows for drop down visable but no text or titles there either.
I deleted and re-d/loaded... still same issue.
Any ideas?

Thank you very much

OpenOffice.org Portable doesn't change language settings or spellcheck

Submitted by myaccount on March 4, 2007 - 6:50am

I'm specifically using OO Writer, but their all kind of the one program anyway.

The Spellcheck says that everything that has alphanumeric digits is a word.

I went to:
Tools->Options->Language Settings->Writing Aids
and pressed the edit button for the 'avaliable language modules'.
The language was set to Czech. I changed it to English(UK), but this didn't
save as the new setting. I tried English(USA) as well since an earlier setting
was English(USA) or Default - I thought USA might be the main one to be made
or something.

trying to create in base and it gives me an error

Submitted by Wayne G on February 26, 2007 - 3:45pm

I have just loaded office portable and when I try to create use base it gives me the error "JRE required". It tells me to download the jre and then restart office. My question is where do I get this file, I have looked on the Sun site and don't see which file I need. Any help would be great.

Confused about OpenOffice launcher

Submitted by fisheromen1031 on February 21, 2007 - 9:39am

I was under the impression that the launcher would bring up a small bar with icons to click for each of the components of Open Office. Or I thought it might put a button on my system try with a right-click menu like a previous version of (non-portable) OOo did. When I double click OpenOfficePortable.exe, I get an empty app window with a normal menu bar at the top. Is this what the Open Office launcher is supposed to do? That doesn't seem much like a "launcher" to me.
