Hi Folks, Dunno if it's just my installation, or if it's a general thing. Whenever I open a ".doc" in OpenOffice oowriter, or even just start up oowriter without nominating a document, the first thing that comes up is a panel which says:
Openoffice.org Document Recovery Recovering document: [ blank ] Status of recovered documents: Document Name Status yrt.doc Not recovered yet [Start Recovery] [Cancel]
Then, if I click on [Start Recovery], this changes to
Status of recovered documents: Document Name Status yrt.doc X Recovery failed [Finish]
Then, when I click on [Finish], it proceeds to open the document as if there had been no problem. It doesn't seem to happen, however, with oocalc (the spreadsheet).
There does not seem to be a file "yrt.doc" anywhere on my system. Perhaps it was looking for some basic system/template file which it did not find, hence the messages. But I'd like to know what's going on, if anyone knows!
I'm not really an OOo user but I do have it installed and in my home directory I have a directory called .openoffice.org/3/user which contains various subdirectories including things like 'backup' and 'temp'. They're mainly empty on my computer, but perhaps yours may have a reference to this random yrt.doc file?
