Hello All
I downloaded  the following from 'Ubuntu Geek'  - it specifically deals
with the installation of OOo3.2, but I have downloaded but not installed
the similar file for OOo3.3.0  I now have a file
'OOO330_m20_native_packed-1_en-US.9567' after unpacking.
Every thing below is clear except for the  number 9472 which occurs in
point 4 below  - where did this number come from ???????
Thanks
David

This tutorial will explain how to install latest version of openoffice
in ubuntu

You can check what is new in openoffice 3.2 from here
<http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/features/3.2/>

First go to the OpenOffice website
<http://download.openoffice.org/other.html> and download the Linux .deb
file (On your desktop)

1 - Once you have done that, extract the .deb file,

    OOo_3.2.0_LinuxIntel_install_en-US_deb.tar.gz

Run the following command from terminal or just right click select extract

    tar xzvf OOo_3.2.0_LinuxIntel_install_en-US_deb.tar.gz

Then you'll see a file called OOO320_m12_native_packed-1_en-US.9483

2 - You can remove the existing version of OpenOffice if you wish with
this command:

    sudo apt-get remove openoffice*.*

3 - Copy and paste OOO320_m12_native_packed-1_en-US.9483 onto the
desktop then open Terminal and paste this command:

    sudo dpkg -i ~/Desktop/OOO320_m12_native_packed-1_en-US.9483/DEBS/*.deb

4 - Then paste this command:

    sudo dpkg -i
    ~/Desktop/OOO320_m12_native_packed-1_en-US.9483/DEBS/desktop-integration/openoffice.org3.2-debian-menus_3.2-9472_all.deb

Once you've done that you'll find OpenOffice 3.2 in Office.
