Were you in a terminal window inside your GUI? <br><br>If I open a term and type "soffice -calc abc.xls" (or any filename that doesn't exist) I get the file not found error.<br>If I type "soffice -calc" it opens OOcalc no problem.<br>

Okay,<br>
<br>
I'm sitting at the command prompt in a given directory. I want to<br>
create a spreadsheet.<br>
<br>
I try "oocalc abc.xls" and I get abc.xls does not exist. :<<br>
<br>
I try oocalc -? to see the override switch.<br>
<br>
It recommends (or that's how I read it)<br>
<br>
soffice -calc abc.xls<br>
<br>
I try that and give it a minute or two to open, still nothing. I control-c.<br>
<br>
I try oocalc with no args at all.<br>
<br>
It just returns with no verbal info at all, and no gui.<br>
<br>
I go to my vmware XP install and launch excel....<br>
<br>
The end of my sad story.<br>
