Hi :) I'm not sure what is going wrong here. After setting the new defaults using the drop-downs you have to click on the "Ok" button. Then when saving a document you often get a weird pop-up that instead of having 2 options "Cancel" and "Ok" it has 2 options "Keep current format" (in the position you would expect to find "Cancel") and "Use Odf format" (in the position you would expect to find the "Ok" button).
Apparently the 3.5.0 version finally got around to making that rather confusing pop-up into something much less confusing.

Steps: Tools>Options>Load and Save>General> Default file format and ODF settings.. Document type Text document > Always save as Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP/2003 Ok.. But when i create a new text document file it's created as .ODT. Steps of creating new file.. Right mouse click >NEW> New text document.. And it's always .odt :)) I'm a student, all our lecturers are using microsoft office, so I need to send them the .doc file, i know that i can save as manually to .doc, but i wanted it automatic.
