[Daniel Lamb]

Yes my apologies if it came across that way, 

Also I was wrong about java, but it will run on any os.

Regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Your email came across (to me, at least) in a manner I doubt you
intended. You can't expect every user to know what language the
software they use is written in, it shouldn't be necessary for them to
know.

For the record, OOo is written in C++, however there are certain
components and features which do rely on Java to work.

Hope this helps,
Matthew.
