I just tried to open a OpenOffice generated Word file in my HWPF version and it worked without problems. If you can send me a sample file, I can take a look at it. Regarding the Open Office SDK: I never used it so I can't say much about it - if it works for you, you may have less trouble reading all the different Word files. It depends a bit on how complex your files are (full blown fancy flyers made in Word or simple reports consisting of text mainly...).
