Hi Jerry,

Tks for your advice.

Yes I have 2 tarballs downloaded to

/home/user/Download/OpenOffice-1.1/
en-ooodict-GB-1.2.tgz
openoffice-1.1.0_1.tbz

Whether your suggested to run

# cd /home/user/Download/OpenOffice-1.1/
# pkg-add openoffice-1.1.0_1.tbz
(or pkg_add ???)

Give the path to '/usr/local/'.  Will it create the directory 
'openoffice-1.1.0_1' under 'usr/local', i.e.
/usr/local/openoffice-1.1.0_1

and then to run 'setup' from there afterwards.

How about the dictionary 'en-ooodict-GB-1.2.tgz'

B.R.
