This sounds like you have opened the database component of OpenOffice -
which will ask for that choice - rather than the main OpenOffice start
screen. You don't mention you OS, nor how you are actually invoking
OpenOffice, so I can't offer much more advice.

I have recently purchased a new computer and installed OpenOffice. It’s asking
me if I want to create a new database or use an existing? I have a thumb drive
full of documents that are in OpenOffice format and all that I want to do is
plug in the thumb drive and continue working on the files that are already
there. What is the simplest way to set this program up?
Thanks,
Jim
