No problem!
When you have finished your document, instead of clicking "Save", click
"Save as" under the File menu, and in the dialogue that appears you will
see "File type". From the list of available types select "Microsoft Word
97/2000XP". Your file will then be saved in the MS .doc format, and can
be attached to your email, and opened by the recipient with MS Office.
Good news - spreadsheets can also be saved in the same way using the MS
Office spreadsheet format .xls.
The same ability to save to MS format applies to Impress/Power Point
And more good news is that if you receive a MS Office document you can
open it with Open Office - and save it again in MS format if you want.
Enjoy OOo - you will find it the most flexible Office suite in the business!

We bought a computer with XP and OpenOffice.org about 6 months ago.
Every time we try to attach a file through email, the recipient
complains that it cannot be opened. How come our program is not Word
compatible (since that's what most people use)? Can we fix this
without having to buy more software? What about Excel spreadsheets
also?
Please help, as I have someone waiting on a resume.
Thanks.
