OpenOffice Portable

I know a few people have complained about how long it takes Open Office to start up, so I thought I would share this tip with everyone. I tried it on Portable OO and it seemed to open much faster!

Guess it seems obvious, huh? Is it true though?

Been using old CF cards etc at work and hadn't really considered that this is probably a real bottleneck.

Any thoughts?

Hi, I'm lookong for the zipped (no setup) version of the original (I mean, NOT the John's portable edition) OpenOffice 2.0.3 for Windows.

I searched all around but had no luck, and I just found the setuppable one: any help?

Hallo,
now I tried to use Portable OpenOffice on my TabletPC HP T1000 with the actual WindowsXP-Version. The problem I have, is: The pull-down menus in OOO pop up only for a shor moment, but I can not work with Portable OpenOffice, because I can not work with the menu.

Pleas help me what to do, to work this problem around.

Thank you.

Heinrich.

the literature says that Portable OO is "compatible" with WordPerftect. I take this to mean that it can open WordPerfect files. Can it also save as a WordPerfect file?

thanks

Hello,

today we have announced a new version of POOo in german language. This is transformed out of the original OOo-2.0.3-de. It uses the original POOo-Files from PortableApps for its start and configuration. You find the download at:
ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/misc/ooodev/portableooo/
There are two versions: one with python-support and another without it.

Hi,
I have the portable version of Open Office on a USB Flash Drive. It will work great on an XP machine, but when I take it to work and use it on a Windows 98SE machine (full updated) -- the top menu bar (file, edit...etc) will not appear. Everything else does appear, but not the top menu bar.

I gave the same Flash USB drive to a co-worker --using an XP machine -- and it worked perfect.

How can I fix this so it works on my W98SE machine?

Thanks in advance

Got something for the App-Develepoer:

I decompressed the zip file to a usershare in my office. it is pointed to a normal network share like \\server\directory\. The Share is set hidden in the windows explorer = no Network-Device-Letter (i.e. L:) set on it.

PortabelOpenoffice gives me after Openoffice Splashscreen an Error Message: Openoffice.org 2.0 - The application could not be started. an inernal error occured (OK button).

On Network shares with an device Letter it runs normal.

Hello all
I am a U3 Newbie and have a question
I downloaded the OOo nprogram from the U3 site from the U# smart disk. It went through all steps but when it finished, it said there was an error and it was not installed. I tried two times and the same result.

My question, if I down load the version from this site and install it on the U#, will I have any problems with running it if I do not let the U3 download and install it?
Thanks in advance for any help
