Hi

I have just loaded OOO 2.0.1 but when I click on my old documents (eg *.swx) in 
'windows exploer', or 'my computer', it loads in the old version 1.1.0. How can 
I change this. I couldn't find anything in Options or Help.

Assuming that you're using Windows, right-click on one such file, and select Open With... Select OOo 2, and check the "always" option.

Things are this way for two reasons:

1) To allow business users to break in use of OOo 2 easily, and without risking their current documents.

2) To distinguish the OpenDocument format from the OOo 1 format. OpenDocument was based on the OOo 1 format, but it is not the same, and there exist many programs that can read and write OpenDocument, but cannot handle OOo 1 at all.
