Your attachments were stripped by the mailing list software. As I can't
see them, I'm guessing that you try to open the documents by double
clicking on them in Windows Explorer and Windows is offering to open
them with MS Office.
If this is the case, it is likely that a Windows upgrade has silently
changed file associations so the Windows is configured to open
OpenOffice files with MS Office. Set the associations again - for
Windows 10 click Start-->Settings-->System--->Default Apps-->Set
Defaults by App. Click on Apache OpenOffice then Set this program as
default.

is a page with pictures showing ways of changing default programs in Win 10

I had been using Microsoft Office for years but could not stand how
they almost wanted a pint of blood every year just to use their
product at home. Like I said I just started using your product and had
been really happy with it.
But now I can’t open documents in Open Office when I had just created
those documents in that program weeks before.
I am currently unemployed and looking for a job – all my resumes are
in (.odt). Will I be able to send them out?
I am also a writer and have been converting a ton of my previous
documents into your format – this scares me.
I don’t know what happened but this could destroy years worth of work.
I will send two attachments, one of what I see when I try to open a
document, and the other of what I see when it does open.
If this continues to happen I will have to pay the blood to try to get
my documents back.
Let me know if you get an answer.

If a program is useful, it must be changed.
