Hi--

I am using gnome 2.22.3 on Ubuntu 8.04.3. Is this thread where I need to look for this problem?

Symptoms:

1. When I go to open a .doc file attachment in evolution, it wants to use evince to open it, not OOo.

2. When I go to open an .odt file in Gnome's "Search for Files," it will not open it, or will open it in Kword but not OOo.

3. When I right click a file in nautilus, choose preferences and then open with, there are several instances of just about every application--text editor, OOo Word Processor, spreadsheet, you name it.

Or is there some other place I should be looking?

I also came across this thread, which seems to be pointing in the same direction as you are here.

Thanks!
