I assume that by "reset" your user profile you mean find a directory such as
documents and settings\<username>\applicationdata\openoffice\3\...
And delete the openoffice directory (or rename it for testing).
Not on a windows computer, so I can not verify the path. Of course, the path varies depending on your version of windows. Also, by default, I think that Windows hides the application data directory....

Rest made no difference : problem still there. |

At least you're not alone with this problem: http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=82990
BTW: Which OOo version are you using? Where did you get it from? When did you do the last update? What was the last previous working OOo version on your PC? Are all of OOo's applications affected? Are you using OOo's Quickstarter? Which operating system are you using. And don't tell simply "Windows", because I got that point from the .dll error. Which Java version (if any at all) are you using? |
