OOo2 is "compatible" in the meaning that it can open all files created
by SO7. For SO7 you must install the latest product patch to be able to
open documents in the "Open Document" file format of OOo2.0 that it uses
as its new standard file format.

Besides that SO7 is a commercial brother of OOo1.1. If you have
installed the latest product patch for it (PP5) you will get the same
updates as you get for OOo1.1 by installing OOo1.1.5.

The commercial brother of OOO2 is StarOffice8.
