Open odt files with Qt

Hi
I want open an odt file with my application.
I have already opened pdf files- > this works without problems with the

QDesktopServices::openUrl(QUrl("file:///path, QUrl::TolerantMode);

but if I open an odt file with that command, it seems to open it, because the openoffice picture with the progressbar pops up, but the file stay closed....

whats wrong?

can u help me ? thanks

For me it works (I tried only in Windows).

Are your environment configured to launch OpenOffice Writer to read ODT files?

Can you post the code?

This in my code

Code:

---

// Ask the user to select a ODT file
void Widget::on_openUrlButton_clicked()
{
    QString fileName = QFileDialog::getOpenFileName (
                this,
                tr ("Open File"),
                ".",
                tr ("Open Document Text Files (*.odt)"));
 
    if (!fileName.isEmpty ()) {
        ui->urlEdit->setText (fileName);
    }
}
 
// Launch proper application to read selected file
void Widget::on_goButton_clicked()
{
    QUrl url = QUrl::fromLocalFile (ui->urlEdit->text ());
 
    bool result = QDesktopServices::openUrl (url);
    if (!result)
        qWarning () << "Failed to open URL " << url;
}

Thank u for your reply. I'm on ubuntu, but your reply helped great. There where too much slashes in my code. It was my mistake :( . But if I create my QUrl like you, the problem had not ever occured.
