I upgraded to 3.5 because of the default download status but it looks 
like I should go back to version 3.4.

The wording should be sorted out because any new user who does not 
follow this forum would download 3.5 as a matter of course and could 
lead to disappointment and more income for Micro$oft. Any number of 
download sites for other software have 'stable' and recommended 
downloads and 'unstable'  beta editions for those who like to live 
dangerously. Perhaps the LibreOffice download page should go down this 
track.

BTW the GB help file didn't work in 3.4 either.
