Ok, please can you update OpenOffiec using Synaptic Package Manager?

System Manager menu on top taskbar - Administration - Synaptic is near the end

Click the 'Mark all Upgrades' button and then 'Apply'

synaptic didn't help

if you launch open office from a terminal and then get it to crash you can see the error messages and post them for us here.

Please make sure your system is fully updated upgraded...

Open a Terminal from the menu Applications → Accessories → Terminal and type:
(when the system ask you a password give your user password, you will not see nothing when you type it, then press enter)

sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo apt-get -f install
sudo apt-get --fix-missing install
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Try OpenOffice... if you a still in trouble... please reinstall OpenOffice, from terminal type:

sudo apt-get --purge --reinstall install openoffice

Hope this helps

Thanks marcobra, that solved my question.
