*sigh*

   I installed the latest version, ran that 'update-alternatives' 
command (which reported there being no alternatives), re-aliened 
OpenOffice2.0.3 and did a fresh install with the same frustrating 
results. Edit, save, crash.

   This is causing me big problems! I can't work without a spreadsheet 
program... :(
