This is to be expected. OpenOffice saves its files in compressed form. They are essentially a zip file containing several files: content, styles, layout, settings etc. I have seen a utility mentioned that will search these files for content. Possibly, someone else on the list will be able to point you to it.

Dear Openoffice Support Team,
It is very strange but true. I have a file made in open office and when I go to Search file / folder option and specify some text contained in this file, it fails to search that file.
However if I convert the same file to a pdf document the find file / folder option is able to search this pdf file. But it still does not search the open office file.
Pls. suggest a solution for this problem. Regards,
Manali Sabharwal I. T. Executive
