For information

I have a brand new installation of Karmic 9.10 with OOo built and all up to date. Never been touched before.
I wanted to move from Word. I can open and edit word documents , but the OOo spell checker is not functioning, and any attempts to use the options menu in OOo produce crashes at diffferent points with a frozen Ubuntu and mouse movement only. The effect is an unusable OOo at the moment.

Will remove and try re install though Ubuntu Software Centre before attempting the above recommendations
