Re: [libreoffice-users] Can't open ms files

Hi :)
Certain characters can sometimes cause problems.  It might only be 1 character in that particular 
path the is causing this.  Apparently in English it's worth avoiding a $ in a path or file-name.  

Is it possible to get a language pack for the OS?  I'm not certain that is where the problem is.  
If OOo coped then LO should too.  Do you still have OOo on your system?

So, i think it's most likely that it is the file-name itself that is the problem.  Can you give it 
another japanese name?  Perhaps a shorter name?
Regards from
Tom :)

I'm using LibreOffice 3.3.4 (Language settings: western, English/Asian, Japanese)   (Build:401) 
installed on OS X 10.6.8 (English OS)

I downloaded and saved a .ZIP file containing two .docx files and unzipped them to the same place. 
when I try to open them I get the following error message:    /username/foldername/filename.docx 
cannot be opened because it does not exist.  The file name is in Japanese hiragana. When I change 
the file name to a western font it opens as usual.

Why can't I open files with Japanese file names?  I have been using 3.3.4 since it's release and I 
have not had this problem before.
