You know to save space. I already deleted the useless help files (saved 24 MB). Please give me a list of these files. This would be very helpful (even though I have a 1 GB drive and have 419 MB remaining I am space greedy.)
I just installed OO portable on a new U3 device, then realized there is a U3 version. How do I uninstall the portable version?
Hi, I have a small problem, one I hope you wonderful people here can fix. I'm using the Portable Apps Menu, however, when I open O.O.org Portalble I want to actually run the OpenofficePortable.exe, and have that show up in the menu, instead of the exe's for each component of OpenOffice. I like to be able to click on one exe and then choose what I want to do. Plus it would take some of the clutter out of my menu.
Thanks.
I'm making a table with headers in Portable OpenOffice Writer, two column table (table > insert table), across three page columns (format > column). When I make the table header, the program crashes.
Obscure, but annoying.
I have successfully downloaded and run the PortableApps suite on three different USB hard drives and on all my USB thumb drives. I even ran it off of my Sandisk m200 series MP3 player.
Out of curiosity, I tried to download it and run it on my laptop's hard drive, most programs in the suite worked perfectly, but, OpenOffice Writer did not work and gave me some error saying some file was not present. I deleted the suite and downloaded it again and then installed it and got the same problem again. Does anyone have any idea why PortableApps would not work from some folder on my laptop hard drive?
WHen I tried to use Help I often get messages like this:

Hi, what program do you use to make the self-install?
7zip can make self-extract but I can't change lables, icon etc.
So, do you use some specific application to create installer?
I am new to OpenOffice and OOMacros.
I am trying to save a file to a relative path on my thumb drive.
The Macro I recorded works fine and saves as designed (saves as same file name in both html and odt formats)but I must have the drive letter "H:/" for it to save correctly.
Macro snippet:
rem ----------------------------------------------------------------------
dim args1(2) as new com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
args1(0).Name = "URL"
args1(0).Value = "file:///H:/OpenOfficePortable/Data/ER/test.odt"
args1(1).Name = "FilterName"
args1(1).Value = "writer8"
args1(2).Name = "SelectionOnly"
