Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: [Not to group] Re: files on network shares not opening. Own ones are ok?

Hi :)
It could easily be a network problem.  I'm not convinced our network is
working as it should but various people have tested it and said it's fine.

Caligra opened the network files with no problem.  Refused to open them
from the
File - Open
claiming that only local files could be opened.  However when i went to the
network share and double-clicked on the file it opened just fine in Caligra
Author

Still got to read through some of those links that Steve sent me on Friday
Many thanks!  Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
