Re: [libreoffice-users] default setup

That does not work on my windows xp machine.  Pretty bothersome.

That would depend a lot on what you did not tell us: which OS? What
window manager? What email client?

Hi :)

Most linux distros and Windows platforms all have a very similar gui  
point&click 
way of doing this.  


First save one of the email files to your machine.  Then right-click on that  

file and choose 


Properties - "Open With"

Set it to LibreOffice or Impress.  Note that the right-click menu probably  
also 
has an "OpenWith" option but this is a "one off" whereas the one in  
"Properties" 
sets all files of this type to be opened with the program you choose.

You can test this by going back to the email and ask it to just open the  
file 
rather than downloading it this time.

Regards from
Tom :)
