Hello Jonathon, I am afraid I will have to disagree. I can provide links to MSO documents made very professionally using styles throughout that still don't convert nicely in OOo. Indentations for example are not correct, outline numbering disappears (and with it the ToC) and so on. In general I have to say that I am fairly satisfied with the conversion and my main grudge is with anchored objects (frames, images) that are consistently misplaced in when OOo renders the MSO documents, but I understood from one developer (don't remember who) that this won't be solved since MSO handles anchoring in a very mysterious way. Cheers, Michele
