[Dropped] OpenOffice closes abruptly; work lost

Post by jlaperfect »

Hi there,
I have just switched over to Open Office.
But while working in Writer or Base or Spreadsheet - the program will close without reason - and all the work done is gone.
There seems to be a RAM or memory situation.
Please guide me.

Also - I was working in ACCESS - but Microsoft is giving me a problem.
I can`t get the data from Access into Base ??
Please can you help me with this - step by step

Many thanks

You don't say what your operating system is.

In any case give a LibreOffice a try instead of OpenOffice. There are several good reasons for trying this anyway, some of which are mentioned here: [Tutorial] Considering a Switch from OpenOffice to LibreOffice? Some Useful Information
LibreOffice 25.2.3.2 (x64) installed to Windows 11 Pro. 24H2
Apache OpenOffice Portable 4.1.15 [Portable Apps]
For Java I use Adoptium Temurin JRE LTS Releases.
