    I've been transferring some information using "copy and paste" from my old Quattro Pro 9 and WordPerfect 9 programs into new files with openoffice.org Writer.

    I've been going back and forth between windows, creating backup files using WordPad to store my information.

    Then all the sudden I can't open the openoffice writer. I click on it and nothing happens. I go to reboot the computer, and I get a
    DDE Server Window message saying that this program is not responding. I press the end task button, and the openoffice.org program opens suddenly for just a few seconds, then the computer goes into reboot.

    Please help, I don't want to be rebooting the computer several times to complete my work within office.org writer.
    Thanks!

    Hi, just an update. The error has stopped, although I had to reboot a couple of times in order to get openoffice to open, as it would refuse after being opened several times during each session of my work. Maybe I had too many things going on at once? Anyways, all is well.
