Assuming you have "Writer" running double click the icon of the document you wish to open OR in Windows Explore right mouse click the document icon/title, hover over "Open with" and select "swriter".

I'm a very new user for OpenOffice.org (just today!) and tried to use it to open the file but got an error message "General input/output error". Can you advise me on how to open a .doc file?
