Personally I save in the native OpenOffice document format. When you need to send a document to someone that you're not sure of whether they are using OpenOffice, you need to ask yourself only one question: does this person need to edit my document?

If the answer is Yes, then choose File/Send/Send as Microsoft ...
If the answer is No, then choose File/Send/Send as PDF.

Many thanks for your help with an earlier query re dowloading Open Office. Having now started using the product, could I pick your brains on another thing? When I first started saving new documents, I used the default format option OpenDocument Text (.odt), but I found that e-mail recipients could not then open them when sent as attachments. I think I've found a better option now; but which one would you recommend for universal acceptability of attachments withour causing other problems - and how do I make that one my default option? Thanking you again in anticipation Andy Thompson
