Yes, Pat, you have subscribed to the openoffice.org users list -- if you didn't intend to do that, you'll want to unsubscribe. :-)

Meanwhile, we've been trying to help you, but the main problem is that there is not an "OpenOffice document file" per se. Whenever you save a document from OOo, you have a chance to tell it where to save the file; by default on a Windows system, that is the My Documents folder, along with everything else. (To see where they go by default on your system, use Tools > Options, OpenOffice.org, Paths, and look at the My Documents field -- which you can change if you want.)

Once you know where the files are, you can use whatever your operating system supports for file deletion; there is nothing unique to OOo about deleting files, that isn't done from within OOo. As I said in an earlier response, if you are on Windows you might find it easiest to deal with a large number of files if you sort by filetype for the list presented by Windows Explorer, or use the Search capability to find files with the extension odt (which is what Writer uses), by using the search term "*.odt" (without the quotes, of course).
