Re: [libreoffice-users] OpenOffice.org linkage

Hi :)
This guide probably isn't hugely useful but it might be worth a glance through
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Installing_in_parallel

I think that trying to get rid of OpenOffice is not quite as straight-forwards as it should be.  It 
is probably a lot easier on Windows but on Gnu&Linux i have 'had' to use the package-manager to 
hunt down all the extra add-ons and bits&bobs to uninstall.  I think on Windows all those types of 
things tend to be all together regardless of whether you want each bit or not.  I'm not certain but 
if you have a package manager it's worth having a look at what it can find.  

Regards from
Tom :)

No, it wasn't.  Turning that on doesn't change the behaviour.
