Hello All
OOo acts like a huge male lion who kills all the males of another
Pride (. docx files).
When I installed OOo and removed preinstalled trial version MSO
in new laptop I got a problem. This installation killed my .docx file.
I have one .docx file. I tried to open it using OOo and got message
that the file is corrupted . After I let to restore the file I got the
second message that the file can not be restored and opened. It was
not corrupted before OOo installation.
This file is the information letter from Acer, where they congratulated
me with the purchase of their product (laptop), gave me customer
ID and asked me to SAVE it )))
I can open the file as .txt. Then I can see many symbols and three
words that I can understand - word - blabla - xml - blabla - document -
blabla...
Now I found information that OOo is not compatible with Microsoft
Office 2007.
So, is this file really corrupted or OOo 2.4 considers it as corrupted
because of incompatibility?
Will I be able to open this file after OOo 3.1 instalation?

I thank all who responded to me.

Did it Kill the file or does it not read the file?
That's exactly what I have *you* (the computer guru) asked:
"So, is this file really corrupted or OOo 2.4 considers it as corrupted
because of incompatibility?"
OOo does not open the file and gives the message that the file is
corrupted. Another editor has allowed me to open the file with the .txt
extension, but instead of a text I see only strange symbols. Can you
say is the file killed or not?
Now I shall look forward with great anticipation 3.1 version to try
to open this file.

If you can open it but it is crap, then it was not killed.
It is still there, but unreadable by your OpenOffice.org version.
Version 2.4 does not read .docx files without an add-on.
Version 3.0.1 is out and downloadable now, so you will be
able to use that version to open your .docx files. The next
version of 3.1 is in the RC2 stage, but it works great. In
a week or two the final release will be out for download.
So if you do not want to wait, you can download 3.0.1 now
or wait for 3.1.
