Dear sir/madam.

[Richard Lyes <ra...@hotmail.com>]

I have Always used open office for my books.

I began on Windows XP and never had problems.

Now XP is out of date and i updated to windows 8.1 two weeks ago.

I finalise my books for publication and work through the OO copy b4 uploading to the website.

Recently I have found that after corrections and Saving the document it opens to an old version where the corrections are not shown.

How can this be?

Today 5 June i went out after working for awhile came back uploaded the OO copy to the website and it has not saved the corrections I made.

This is not the first time.

And Spell Check does not work. 

It says,

Spell Check reageert niet,

then shuts down the whole computer???

What is going on is OO incompatible with Windows 8.1?

I have the latest version of Open Office also.

Losing my changes in my books is very time consuming to  do it again and I will be very appreciative could you tell me the reason Save and Auto Check do not work?

Thank you.

OpenOffice works well with Windows 8.1. We have no reports of problems 
similar to the ones you experienced.

Save: maybe you are expecting changes to be shown? Edit -> Changes -> 
check Record and Show and see if this brings out the saved changes you 
couldn't see.

Spell check: a solution is to reset your user profile; at the next 
restart, OpenOffice will reinstall dictionaries. See:
