This gets more bizarre, in a subsequent version of the same document, Word now opens the file just fine and displays the first line indents as intended, even though that formatting function does not seem to exist in word as part of paragraph formatting in the same way as it does in LO. MY LO version was 3.5.2.2 and I'm on Windows 7.
