Installing Oxygen Office Professional (aka Open Office Premium)

Hi guys!

I'm a newbie in using Linux and I'm just learning how to use it now Could someone please help me? I'm trying to install Oxygen Office Professional (aka Open Office Premium), but I'm having problems with it. This is the link where I downloaded the program:

https://sourceforge.net/project/show...ease_id=462209

I extracted the files into my desktop and browsed through the folders, I saw a lot of rpm files. I tried clicking them and then an error message appeared. Error message:

Unable to retrieve software information
Unable to retrieve software information. This could be caused by not having a network connection available

Please help! Thanks!

That would be the pirut software updater trying to connect to get some software repository information. I would open a terminal and switch to root and run "yum localinstall" on them.
