Hi wikus,
If you can, do this
This will install LibreOffice version 3.3.2, and possibly remove OpenOffice ( LibreOffice is a fork of OpenOffice, and is part of Ubuntu Natty )
Add this to your sources.list file ( /etc/apt/sources.list )
# LibreOffice PPA
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/ppa/ubuntu maverick main
Change maverick to lucid if you are using 10.04
Open Synaptic ( System ->Administration->Synaptic Package Management
Hit the reload button ( top left ), this will load the required file in the PPA
Look for Libreoffice, and install ( If you don't know how - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto )
Hope this helps
William

Lo guys ,
I tried IRC , but it's completely dead there. Nothing going on.
I need help with Open Office. It suddenly has become completely unusable.
I work in word processor , input data , and when I save it completely freezes up.
I can't use it at all.
Can someone help me in fixing it please ?
Ubuntu 10.04.02 64bit with all updates.
Open Office 3.2
