Hello Thomas, Apparently, your office computer doesn't know with what program he should open these files. Depending on your OS, you can teach him to open odt, ods,... and/or doc, xls,... files with OpenOffice.org, by (right-)clicking on one such file and telling the computer what you want. On Mac: control-click on a odt file > show info (shortcut: Apple-i) > open with > choose OOo + tick/check change all to make this choice valid for all odt files. On Windows: something similar...
