Registry entries OOO?

Post by Stefan Wimmer »

Hi,

after installing OOO 2.4.1 with *.msi-package i would like to edit the registry or some files to:

1.) auto-accept the Eula
2.) set standard, that all files will be saved as *xls and *.doc

Can someone tell me where i can find these entries?

Thx

This is not a native WIndows program.

It has it's own XML type of registry in it's install directory ("system.dat" if you like) and in every user's application settings ("user.dat" for that purpose).
Refer to the admin guide, linked on top of this forum.

I would recommend to install Mirosoft Office. Do not use this Office when you want to stick with historical file formats. Anyway, you find the settings for the default file format in Menu:Tools>Options...OOo>Load/Save>General
