The installation required a serial number, which I have.  However, when I try to use it, the Davka splash screen appears, then the program shuts down.  I have no idea how to debug this situation, so if someone can take me by the hand to try to get it working, I would appreciate it.

Regarding Davka Writer, you may want to look at Open Office instead. I
use it as my word processor, and I mostly deal with Hebrew documents.
What features does Davka Writer provide that make it specific to
Hebrew? Open Office handles RTL documents fine.
