hey guys, thanks again for your reply but when i run oowriter in terminal here is the response of my linux box.

/usr/bin/oowriter: line 2: /opt/openoffice.org/program/swriter: No such file or directory

I hope you can help me...

Thanks!

Do an

Code:

---

# updatedb

$ locate swriter

that should tell you where OpenOffice 2 writer is installed. It is usually openoffice.org[build number] instead of just 'openoffice.org'.
