Just be sure to look at this check box when you save a file for the first time. To correct the files which have this problem, open them in OpenOffice.org and use "Save As". To do this, click File to open the File menu. Click Save As. This time make sure that this check box is checked when you save the file.Which begs the question - why is that checkbox even there? All it does is cause this problem (our users have been bit by it a lot too)...
Good question -- not sure why anyone would ever have the need or desire to save a file w/o the file name extension.
