Hello,
I have downloaded the 2.4 m5 version of openoffice. It's my first version

My question: I have read that there is a automatic update function in openoffice. But I can't find this point in the program. The help of openoffice says that there is the function.
Do you can help me.
Thanks.

In my (2.3.1/WinXP) version it's in Tools>Options>OpenmOffice.org>Online Update.
Found it there in 2.4?

Hi,
no it is not in the options-menu? I believe that this function in only in final versions?
Thanks.

Yes, indeed. An update function does not make much sense in a development snapshot, because it might offer you an update very frequently.
Anyway, depending on what your goals are, it might be favorable to use the
current productive release as a start.
