Just moved to OO 1.9.104 (2.0 Beta) and must say its a great improvement over 1.4.
They finally got the print preview in default and with an intuitive (read: windows type) icon.
Works fine on the win boxes. Facing a problem on FC3. even though I ran the GUI integration rpm, and it added the same to the menu, the programs don't seem to come up.
I am working on it, but if anyone has faced a similar situation and knows the fix, please pass it on. thanks.

Ps: the installation history. May 2004: Installed the current version of OpenOffice and asked staff to transition from the existing MSOffice 97/2000/xp.
Nov 2004: Nothing happened. MSOffice used as usual. Mar 2005: upgraded OO to 1.4 but still no transition to it from msoffice. May 2005: Uninstalled all versions of MSOffice, and changed the file extension to .sxw and .sxc via a script.
There was whining for exactly 2 days about how difficult the new thing is and how it doesnt do so n so functions (primary complaint being, no print preview button).
The new version 1.9.104 shoots down that excuse too and the look n feel is very very pleasant.
moral: one only learns swimming in deep water.

i had a question. does the right click popup take a really long time to load even in this version? The last time I used OO was on FC2 and it used to take a hell of a time to give me spelling suggestions and stuff.
