Hi :)
That is good to hear.  Do they look ok when you open them or is the formatting 
all messed up?  

I would tend to favour using Works to change the format to doc, xls etc so that 
all the different Office Suites could open them properly.  Hopefully soon most 
Office Suites will handle ODF 1.2 formats properly as it's a much better and 
safer format.  The time of the doc and xls formats is likely to draw to a close 
as MS need to push people into using their newer products.  Hopefully thee 
might be a way to do the conversion from the command-line and if so then it 
might be possible to convert a large number of documents quite quickly using 
some sort of script or batch file or something.  
Regards from
Tom :)
