You need to reset the file associations for the documnt types you do not wish 
OpenOffice to open.  Normally ths is doe by right clicking on a typical 
document of a type and selecting Open With option from the pop-up menu.  There 
is usually a setting towards the bottom of the dialog wibdow that open to say 
"always use this application".  I have not access to a Mac, so the real 
wordings may be slightly different.
