Barbara,
You are a rock star! Thank you so much. I was trying to go into
settings and wasn't getting anywhere. This worked perfectly...and
suddenly all my docs are back.
Very cool,
Doug

Hello,
I'm having trouble when I recently upgraded to the latest Open
Office. When I uninstalled the old one and installed the new one,
all my Writer documents became unreadable. They changed to "Doc"
files and I can't seem to convert them back, or save them as a
different file type. So, I'm stuck. Please email me back if you
can help.
This didn't happen to my spreadsheet documents, only the writer ones.
Thanks,
Doug
Doug, the formats of the actual files would not have been changed by
the installation. Most likel;y, what has happened is that the file
association with Writer got lost. If you right click on one of the
files and choose Open With, then browse to your OOo Writer program
(swriter.exe), select it, and choose the option to always use this
program for these files, you should be back in business.
