How can I set all relevant file associations to Libre Office? I
looked thru a dozen menus and searched the web but no answer! I'm on
Windows at the moment, but will also use it on Linux Ubuntu.

I can't answer about Win, since I use it at work only and I don't
recall trying to associate files with programs in Win. But in Linux
using gnome / nautilus it's pretty easy. Just open your home folder and
find a file of the type you want to associate to LibO (such as an odt
file in Documents folder), then right click on it and select the option
to 'Open With' and it will have a default option but you can select
'Open with other application' and then it should give you a list of
alternatives. There should also be a checkmark in that selection area
for 'Remember this application for (similar) files. If that is
selected, it should now make LibO Write the default for files of that
type.

Then do the same for csv or other types of files. There may be another
way to do it, but that's what I use if I want to use something other
than or change the default for a particular file type.
