It's interesting that this problem has been encountered before. Thank 
you all for your input, all very informative for me.
     Bringing the matter to a conclusion:
	1. reboot didn't work
	2. ps aux did not seem to indicate a running calc.
	3. the computer is not on a network
	4. neither permissions or document protection change helped.
	5. in view of Bernd's comments I wasn't game to use killall -9
I eventually tried opening another existing spreadsheet which also had 
the same problem and decided the fault was with open office.

I entered "sudo urpmi -upgrade openoffice" in a console and the problem 
was solved. Three library packages downloaded and installed and bingo!
I'm sorry that I didn't keep a record of them tho'.

Thanks again for your feedback.
