Start OpenOffice.org. Using the mouse, click File. This opens a
menu. One of those items is New. Click New. This opens another menu
containing all of the applications contained in OOo. The top item in
this menu is Text Document. Click it. An untitled empty document is
created with the cursor flashing in the upper left corner. Type your
letter.
The phone company punch card refers to the bills sent out by AT&T
back in the 1950's and 1960's. They contained a card with holes
punched in them that you were suppose to bring to their office to pay
your bill or send with your payment through the mail.
