I don't know how I got on this mailing list? I'm not a programmer, I just
wanted to find out why when I created a document I could not read it with
Microsoft Word. I was told that OpenWord might solve some of the problems I'm
having with Office Pro. (inconsistency with formatting commands).
This list is for OpenOffice.org users, who try to help other users. As
for your problem, by default, OpenOffice Writer saves in the ISO
standard ODT format, which Microsoft Office, other than the latest
version, cannot read. You'll have to select the appropriate Word
format, from the drop down list, when you use "Save as". Also, ensure
automatic file name extension is selected. You can also enable support
for ODF files in Microsoft Office, by using the Sun ODF plugin.
