I just set up a new Linux Mint system and as I have liked Apache Open Office in Windows I found and downloaded version 4.0.1. What I got was a tarball, which was daunting, but I found a tutorial and installed it. The instalation included getting rid of Libre Office, which came with Linux Mint.
At the end of the instalation, however, I discovered I didnt have a proper integrated system which would pop in whenever I double clicked the right file, but a script I had to navigate to and click in order to launch the correct program. I am reminded of Word Perfect from 1992.
I will be resolute, however. I'm sure there is more. Help would be appreciated.

Re: I dont seem to have everything
Go through the process again. You may have missed
which puts OpenOffice links in the Office directory.
You also may need to set File Associations for the OO components.
Code: Select all
cd desktop-integration
sudo dpkg -i *.deb

I was sure I'd done that as it came up twice in the tutorial. I did it again and all is now well, however. Thanks for your help.
