oops my bad.. I mistook the reference to the converter MS is providing
which
is one way.. I wish the project luck. But I notice that MS is a sponsor
just
from this I don't give it much hope in the long run.. I just read the

I think it will depend on whether the various governments who are
insisting on ODF stick to their guns, and how much Microsoft want part of
the pie.
If all of that happens, and a large percentage of public documents are in
ODF format, then Microsoft Office will have to be able to read them if
they want to be in the game at all. And if they want Word to be able to
create any of those documents (or even just edit them), then they will
have to be able to save to ODF as well.
Time will tell.
