Thank you so much!  One last question...how do I change the page
margins?  I tinkered around with it for almost an hour and still
couldn't figure it out.
Thank you again!

Yes you can open MSO templates (assume .dot) with OOo, but be aware that
if the MSO template contains macros the macros will not work in OOo. The
reason is that MSO macros are written in VBA (Visual Basic for
Applications) and OOo macros are written in SB (Star Basic). The VBA and
SB syntax is similar, but they are not compatible.

If you have downloaded version 1.9.x (beta 2.0) you could try:
Menu -> File -> New -> Business Cards

What I have done is create a label sheet as a template for my own
business cards.

HTH
