Finally managed to get things back online.... :) I've posted the my solution at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=832995&page=3...
People need help with this... My openoffice installation is screwed up! Did an udate recently and there was an error in the package. Since then onwards openoffice is giving me errors. I tried to reinstall but got the same output. Removed part if openoffice through synaptic and now I'm stuck with an error that says that openoffice has unmet dependencies. This is what I got when i tried to reinstall the program through terminal:
paul@paul-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install --reinstall openoffice.org

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
openoffice.org: Depends: openoffice.org-base but it is not going to be installed
