Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Re: Re: How to migrate OpenOfficec Writer settings into LinbreOffice Writer

Hi :)
Just copy&paste or rename the OOo UserProfile from 
... openoffice.org/ ...
to
... libreoffice/ ...

You can even copy the user profile to different machines running different operating systems.
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/UserProfiles
All your settings and Extensions and galleries and stuff is stored inside your user-profile.  Note 
that if you have other OpenSOurce programs then their settings are stored in the same folder so you 
will see things like
... firefox/ ...
... libreoffice/ ...
... thunderbird/ ...
Well, after switching your file-browser to show hidden files&folders you will see them.
Regards from
Tom :)

That would be nice. I wonder if there's a settings file hidden somewhere in
OO that we could simply locate and copy across to LO (appropriate folder)
and voila, it's done! Of course, BEFORE one uninstalls OpenOffice.
