Updating OpenOffice

Post by Simba's Dad »

I cannot update my OpenOffice for some reason.
Here is the error message;
The host name update32.services.openoffice.org could not be resolved.
Anyone have a solution.
Thanx

You have to select the version you require, the language required and the operating system on the top green bar. The update is a complete download which you can install over your existing OO.

The codebase was transferred to Apache some years ago, hence the name change.

Or you can choose the forked LibreOffice of "The Document Fundation":

PortableApps/winPenPack: LO3.3.0-7.6.2;AOO4.1.14
