From another member of this mailing list:

I am still not experienced in OO Writer, but you can set the default
"save" format in OO Writer via:
<Tools - Options> to get one window, then and then scroll down in
that window to "Load/Save - General," which opens up a window. Near
the bottom are two small menu panes (left and right). Under the left
one (document type), use the menu item "text document." Under the
right pane "always save as," select either "Microsoft Word
97/2000/XP" or, if your teacher has an older or newer version of
Microsoft Word, select one of the other Microsoft Word options.
On any given document, however, you can "save as" another format if
you wish - as a version of Word (.doc), rich text format (.rtf),
Open Document Text (.odt), etc.
I hope this helps.

When doing a "Save As", look at the second drop down list of the
"Save As" window. It is labeled "File type". The file type in the
box is "Open Document Text (.odt)". Click this to open the drop down
list. The scroll down to "Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP (.doc)". Click
this entry to save in the MS Word format.
