Nicolas: Three questions: Question #1: Do I have the correct CentOS version of OpenOffice installed now and are there any other OpenOffice packages I need to install with yum? Question #2: What yum command can I use, to install everything in the OpenOffice "Group", such as writer, calc, and many other packages? Question #3: What yum command should I use (the one below obviously is not correct) to install the Applications/Office menus? (If I can do that, I suspect this will work properly again) I had removed (with yum) openoffice.org3.1-redhat-menus-noarch 0:3.1-9393 because I got a long list of Transaction Errors Thursday night, when trying to install OpenOffice with yum and that's probably why there's nothing in Applications/Office for the OpenOffice.org Applications now. Thank you, again, for your time and help. Much appreciated!
