The few times that I have used OOo, it has autosaved at regular intervals. When I was brave and running beta versions, the restore always worked after a crash. That said (and I don't mean to start a flame war) why not use something more productive like LaTeX? You don't mention that you are doing database or spreadsheet type things, but if you all you are doing is presentations and document composition, LaTeX is far superior. Though, you do need to get past the learning curve. -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://familiasanchez.net/~roberto
