Open Star Office 7.0, and use File > New > Text Document to create
an untitled text document. Use File > Save As to open the Save As
window. Look at the listed File type. If it has (.sxw) at the end,
then Star Office 7.0 can not read *.odt files which are a little
different from *.sxw files. I think this is probably the case.
If you want Star Office 7.0 to read files from OOo 2.0, you must
save them in the OOo 1.x format: (.sxw, .sxc,.sxd, etc.). I think you
need at least version 8.0 to be able to read the *.odt files.
