Yes the automatic file extension is turned on, and the files are saved odt.
I finally got it to work by uninstalling the OO program and reinstalling it.
I don't have a clue what happened to cause this, but it seems to be working
now.
Thanks for the reply

the best virus protection available and this is the only program giving
me any problems. What can I do, this is very annoying, and time
consuming.

Are your files saved with file extentions i.e. .ODT, .DOC etc.? If not,
Windows (I assume you're running Windows) won't recognize the file
type. When you create a file and use "Save as", ensure automatic file
name extension is turned on. If this is the cause, you can fix those
files, by renaming them to include the file type.
