Re: [libreoffice-users] HOWTO change all-user default file formats (Windows), for LOo3.5?

Hi :)
I think a much easier route is to use

Tools - Options - "+Load/Save" - General

At the bottom of that page are 2 drop-down lists.  With the 1st set at "Text document" change the 
2nd to "Word (97/2000/Xp)".  Something like that.  It's back up the list above the default.  Then 
change the 1st drop-down to "Spreadsheet" and the 2nd roll backwards up the list by 2 places.  If 
you only go 1 place up you make templates instead of documents.  Again for Presentations.  

That sets things up in the User Profile
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/UserProfile
which can then be copied to other machines even if they run different operating systems.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi All,

I've searched this topic and found



[libreoffice-users] Re: Default file save format to MSOffice (doc, xls, ppt) etc..
http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/msg12888.html

from last November, however in 3.5 the referenced .xcd files (writer.xcd, etc.,) have multiple 
strings that match the text to replace.  I'd rather not find out the hard way that replacing them 
all breaks something, though if someone can tell me that replacing them all works properly (based 
on experience) that's altogether different.

i.e. for the current LOo version, how does one change the default file save format for all users, 
e.g. during OS deployment.

Is there any documentation (other than the source) on how these files/that xml works?

TIA.
ultra
