Hello.

I am starting to get, more or more frequently, new Microsoft Office file
formats where the extension ends in "x".  So files like
"my-word-file.docx" or "my-excel-file.xlsx".  These files seem to be
created by the newest versions of Microsoft Word, possibly on Macintosh
computers, and my OpenOffice on my Windows Vista machine seems unable to
open them.

I have tried the following:

        Rename the ".docx" file to ".doc", but it doesn't open.

        Force open them from the OO File menu, but then I get a huge
                list of filters.  Closest filter I can find is
                "Microsoft Word 97/XP/2000", but it doesn't work.

Any further suggestions out there?
