availability of the WPS integration package for OpenOffice.org 2.0 for

eComStation and OS/2 Support Agreement, via their login at the Mensys
online shop (under Your Downloads -> Support Agreement for OpenOffice.org)
** Features **

** Installation **
The package is provided as a WarpIn package. Installation is performed by a

Please note that WarpIn 1.0.15 or higher is required.
You can download the latest WarpIn package from the download directory
under your Mensys account.
[ WPS data file class ]
The WPS classes do not require OpenOffice.org to be installed to allow
displaying of properties and preview thumbnail.
OpenOffice.org for eComstation and OS/2 must be installed to allow
drag'n'drop printing and opening of files. Use of the OpenOffice.org
quickstart feature allows faster printing and opening, otherwise a new
instance of the OpenOffice.org binaries will be invoked.
[ WPS-Wizard support ]
If you have installed WPS-Wizard (see below) please select the main
WPS-Wizard installation directory, otherwise scripts cannot be placed in
the proper place.

WPS-Wizard latest info: http://svn.netlabs.org/wps-wizard/
[ REXX hooks ]
See the WPS-Wizard scripts for a sample use of rexx hooks.
[ Whats new in version 1.0.1 ]
- Installation now properly detects and installs regardless of
when OpenOffice.org is or is not available on the system.
- This enables proper Drag and Drop printing and opening of documents
(when a valid installation is found)
- REXX scripts require full path to ooodoc.dll, fixed
** Known issues **
- Objects do not show 'in use' status when opened.
