Sorry about my last message I fixed it.  But there must be a bug 
somewhere.  I guess I had an old 638 build .sversionrc file in my user's 
home directory.  That caused an error message which prevented me from 
loading OpenOffice.  I deleted it, which still caused an error (a 
different error though).  I then copied root's .sversionrc file into my 
home directory and that fixed it.  But there must be a bug...why didn't 
the OpenOffice.org installation create the .sversionrc file? and thus 
overwrite the old one?  And why after I deleted this file and then 
re-installed OpenOffice did it still not create the .sversionrc in my 
home directory?  Build 638 did it no problem because I never had a 
problem to do with this in Build 638.  At that time, I didn't know what 
a .sversionrc file is...  Thanks!  Happy Openofficing,

David Grant
