Will OpenOffice work with Vista 64bit OS?

Post by cheshireQQ »

Hi - before I download OpenOffice can anyone tell me whether the software is compatible with a Vista 64bit operating system? Would appreciate your comments. Thanks

Um, It doesn't for me.

I have the portable version of OpenOffice. When I try to open Writer it crashes.

Has anyone else had this experience?

Note that the portable OpenOffice is a seperate project, not governed by OpenOffice.org.

Try the official Sub build from: OpenOffice.org.
