Fresh Star Office 6 installation on SuSE 8. Thesaurus does not work. Flat out. Does not give any meaning or synonyms. Language (eng/US) is selected (was by default, but I checked to be sure). Clues? Thanks -- Silviu Marin-Caea Systems Engineer Linux/Unix http://www.genesys.ro Phone +40723-267961

It works in my installation, which I bought from Sun with the manual. The most obvious words didn't work: gorse, furze, whin (ulex europaeus), reckoned by some to be the only true synonyms in English. But try hunting for synonyms on 'dead' and you'll get everything but 'joined the bleedin' choir invisible'.

One thing you might try is using the Dictionary applet. I use this in place of a thesaurus w/ Star 6.0. It has the added benefit of being able to work with ANY app that is capable of highlighting a word. -- Zach "Coming to you live from SuSE Linux 8.0"
