Star Office isn't listing the files I created on another computer

By default, Star Office stores the documents you save in the directory
~/.office52.platform/user/work , where platform is i386_linux22 if you
were on a Linux machine at the time, and sun4x_57 , if you were
working on a Sun workstation. To fix it so that Star Office stores
documents in the same directory on both types of computers, you can
run the script soffice52-work-common, from the soffice locker, by
typing at the athena prompt:

add soffice ; soffice52-work-common

Before you run this script, you should make sure that you have run
Star Office at least once on both a Linux machine and also a Sun
computer, that you haven't created subdirectories in your work
directories, and that you haven't changed the default location where
your documents are stored. This script will move your documents in
your two work directories into a common work directory, ~/office52work
