Hey guys I'm using Linux and I'm having trouble with Open Office. This is the first time it has happened. I try to open a file saved with open office and its coming up with translation stuff like western europe (Applemac) and stuff.
What has happened and how can I fix it?
I need this document for the HSC :(
Thanx

Sounds like it was saved in a different format.... is this the same machine you made the file on?

What format is this file in (.doc, .odt, etc.)? Is this the only file that you're having trouble opening?

Its saved in the win/97/98 whatever thing it is...just like always.

I couldnt imagine permissions causing that issue, but the fact that they are all in the same folder makes me think that. Check the permissions on those folders.
