By using the Word format for your Writer documents you can indeed lose data if you used some features in Writer that Word is not able to handle. Users expect to be told about this and so we do. There's an easy way to switch the warning off but we must show it by default. You can either configure this manually or install an OOo extension (for a single or all users of an installation) that does it for you. If you wanted to know more about the extension and how to install it easily please let me know.
