I always used openoffice.org -p whatever. ---------------------------------------------------- Scott, Thanks for your suggestion. My understanding of the '-p' switch is that it prints the document opened to the default printer which works for me unless I add -terminate_after_init to the command line. With this addition I am not getting anything, and without -terminate_after_init I do not get an exit from openoffice.org Any other ideas? Greg
