Thank you!! Now that I have my paper written, is there some quick and easy way to get my star office working? Word isn't letting me do a %$#& thing - everything I try to do, even "Save", I get "Word doesn't have enough memory..." Grrr. When I try to run soffice, depending on the directory, it says there is no such thing (though an ls shows soffice there) or it takes me to a setup program that says it can't find a certain file and when I click "repair" I get a bunch of "error writing such and such to blah blah directory" messages. I am thinking I should just delete all these 5.2 files and start over with 6.0?? Is that ok? I am used to Windows where you can't just delete files, so I want to make sure this is ok before I do it... Thanks! Lorry
