Hi: URGENT!!!!!
Thanks for your response, which certainly has not help my problem. This is not a security issue. It also is not a BUG Microsoft allows you to open password-protected files as read-only. I purchased this laptop with LINUX to do presentations while traveling. So far I am stuck, I cannot use the laptop because all my presentations from my client are password protected for a reason. Can you report this to Open Office developers? I know it is not a bug. But is there some patch that will allow me to open a Microsoft password- protected file in Open Office? If there is no solution, then please say so. We can send a man on the moon, isn't there a way to resolve such a simple problem as opening a Microsoft Presentation password-protected file in Open Office?
