mtweidmann Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 Ok, another case of Mandrake 9.2 forgetting my settings. OpenOffice was defaulting to using MS Office file types, which is not only odd but also annoying. So I went to Tools -> Configure and changed the defaults. But next time I booted guess what, OOo prompts me to save as a .doc file. Why?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris z Posted November 14, 2003 Share Posted November 14, 2003 (edited) what DE are you using? if it's KDE, maybe try going into KCC->components->file associations & making sure they're set correctly there. if not, then set them, apply, & reboot & see if it sticks. if you're not using KDE, there's probably a similar way to change file associations in whatever DE you're using, so try doing the same. EDIT: or/also, open OOo, go to tools->options->load/save->MS Office & tick the load & convert/convert & save boxes there.
