I have been trying to export RTF documents from a database program and

I used to open the same files with word 2000 and did not find a problem.
What am I doing wrong? or is there a workaround?
When you are in the file open dialog box you have to specifically tell OOo
that you are going to open an RTF file.
Unlike your experience, doubleclicking any rtf file in ubuntu's file
explorer (nautilus) causes open office to open the rtf file.
