Free OpenOffice Training Materials: OpenOffice.org "Essentials" Setup Workbook

Note: The lab files were up, went missing, and have been reposted.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

I have finally assembled and posted the 2.0 version of my free OpenOffice workbook, "OpenOffice.org Essentials." It's a bunch of setup tips for things like word completion, how to use the long-click icons, and more.

Feel free to link to it, send it to other people, and reprint it however you like--just credit and link to me, and don't, you know, republish it under someone else's name. ;>

There are a few lab files that you can use if you want.  Right-click on each and choose Save Link Target As to download the file

  • word1.doc
  • excel1.xls
  • spreadsheet1.ods
  • A directory of documents and templates  called monthlyreports to convert with the document converter wizard. Unzip the file when you download it, then point to that directory as the files you want to convert. (You can also just point to whatever Microsoft files you have on your computer--there's nothing special about these files.)
