           Summary: KDE won't launch Openoffice files
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: mickeyboa at sbcglobal.net


Version:            (using KDE 4.1.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

FC 10-X86_64 / KDE

This box is a Fresh install of FC10 from FC8 ,  / was formatted and clean
install, the /home/user was saved from FC8 .

For instance, opening a *.xls , *.odt any OO file, from Dolphin or Konqueror, 
if you LEFT click on a Icon to open a xls, it will say it can't open it,
but if I RIGHT click and tell it to open with "OpenOffice Calc" it will open
it.

In the window, when you RIGHT click it says;

? Open with Spreadsheet
Open with Openoffice Calc
Other

If you click on "Open with Spreadsheet" that when it says it can't open file,  
There is  a ? in front of  'Open with Spreadsheet' , which it means it's a DEAD
application launcher.

But if I select 'Open with Openoffice Calc' it then opens the .xls file.

That  ? Open with Spreadsheet  is a DEAD launcher and also the DEFAULT launcher
when LEFT clicking on Icon to start opening a OpenOffice-3 file.

How Do I Get Rid of   ?  Open with Spreadsheet in the LEFT click window .

I have deleted the ~/user/.kde and let it regenerate a new .kde folder, but
that doesn't help with my problem.

I also deleted the  .openoffice folder and let it regenerate a new .openoffice
folder.
