I Have Problems Loading OpenOffice 2.3 Onto a Vista Computer
- 1). Go to the OpenOffice website and download the program to your computer's hard drive. Save it where you can easily find it.
- 2). Double click on the file to start the installation. In the dialog that appears, click "Run." If it asks if you want to "Run as Administrator" click "OK." The installation dialog will open.
- 3). Click "Next" in the dialog, then click on the "Unpack" button. When this process completes, click "Next" again.
- 4). Read the License Agreement and click the "I Accept" check-box. Click "Next." In the next dialog, you have the option to enter your name and your organizations. Choose whether you want to restrict the use of OpenOffice just to you and click "Next."
- 5). Choose whether you want to make OpenOffice to default program for any Microsoft Office files you might want to open. Click "Next" and click "Install." When this completes, OpenOffice will be loaded onto your computer.
