Ah ha!  Then you need to get out your CDs and install X11. The 
setup guide will help you get this organized ( See
http://documentation.openoffice.org/setup_guide2/index.html ) and pick
the one for whatever release you have. An alternative could be to
install NeoOffice. See
http://porting.openoffice.org/mac/ooo-osx_downloads.html for details.

Short for OpenOffice.org. Two capital 'O' characters and a single
lowercase 'o'.
