It is possible to open and edit .doc files using open office. Also you can open the .docx files with it, but you cannot save it as .docx. The open office suite bundled with Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic can open & edit .docx files (which I believe someone modified the suite). I did a bit of googling & found out the Novell edition of the openoffice have similar capability. I tried to download the plugin alone (as I already have the installation file of the stock OOO), but cannot do it because of certain issues during registration (mentioned earlier in this thread). I want a similar patch or plugin that could help openoffice (windows version) to open & save as XML formats (.docx,pptx,xlx). If somebody has it, or if it is available on alternate download locations, please inform me. -- "Freedom is the only law".
