[Dropped] Save documents directly to OpenOffice application
I am brand new to Open Office. When I save a file my Windows 11 doesn't show the Open Office file to save the files in.. I can save to everything else. Is there any way to save my documents right IN open office. I don't want them on the desktop or One Drive (what ever that is) or anything else.. I need them saved in the program.. OR can I make a file on my drive to save them in.

Re: Saving Documents
You can make a folder to save your files in. The default location for saving is probably the Documents folder on your local drive, though I don't have Windows 11 and I can't be sure. You can save your files there or make a sub folder in Documents. To check what the default location is for saving OpenOffice files, go to the menu item Tools -> Options, expand the OpenOffice list on the left and click Paths. The path listed next to My Documents is the default location for storing your files.

Re: Saving Documents
You cannot save in the application. That would be too dangerous anyway (imagine an upgrade: all the program files are replaced).
Can you explain why you don't want your files to be elsewhere?

Re: Saving Documents
Do you mean the OpenOffice FILE TYPES? That is the ODF: .odt for the Writer application, .ods for the spreadsheets, .odp for the presentations, .odg for the vectorgraphic drawing.When I save a file my Windows 11 doesn't show the Open Office file to save the files in.. I can save to everything else.
And you can save your documents where you want to do... (But NOT recommended to save the DOCUMENTS into the APPLICATION folder (nor any other PROGRAM FOLDER). And not recommended to work on a removable device directly.
Use (create ) a folder in the Documents folder or on a secondary HDD (it can be named as "OpenOffice"- if you want it.)
