Hi
I am using OpenOffice.org 1.1.3 on both Windows 98 and in Linux Mandrake 10.1
and I can't understand why the option to save a document in the Word Processor
does not automatically allow all the format options when you use Save As.
The initial empty document screen allows all the formats but when I've been working on a
document and retrieve it I find that the next save format options "exclude" the
MS Word formats etc.
I'm finding that I have to select the whole document and copy it into the
initial blank page so I can save it in MS Word format. This is crazy!!
Can the program be forced to always include the full list or is this a bug?
I am trying to pursuade our church office to swing away from the MicroSoft
systems onto open source and it is very necessary to have all the formats
available all the time so that a mixed network environment (Windows / Linux)
can share documents easily and without fiddling.
Thanks

Did you try scrolling up in the file format box?
