Hi - Is it possible to open and save Word 2007 documents in

I can't seem to find how to do it. [...]
You can open/save Word 2007 documents in OpenOffice.org 2.1 but you
must install a plug-in first.
You can download it here:
http://download.novell.com/SummaryFree.jsp?buildid=ESrjfdE4U58%7E
Download "odfconverter-1.0.0-2.oxt" if you're using Windows or
"odf-converter-1.0.0-5.i586.rpm" if you're using Linux.
You'll find installation instructions on this page:
http://www.novell.com/documentation/openwg/esd/di_ooo_openxml_translator.html
[...]
You are sure? You have tried it out?
IMO it doesn't work in general - because it seems, you need the
_Novell_ edition of OOo; see system requirements:
The OpenOffice.org OpenXML Translator requires the following versions
of OpenOffice.org:
* OpenOffice.org 2.0.4 or later Novell edition for Windows [...]
As I remember, there's a similar notice in a readme file.

Hi Manfred,
I installed it on vanilla OpenOffice.org 2.1 and now have the
"*Microsoft Word 2007 Document (*.docx)*" option in both "open" and
"save as" dialogs in Writer.
I saved as a test document in this format and opened it afterward with
success. So *yes it works!!!* Unfortunately, I don't have files saved in
Word 2007 (I know nobody who has Office 2007) so I can't verify with a
native MS OpenXML document.
Whatever, don't be afraid to try it. It's not a heavy download and it
works for me on a standard OpenOffice.org 2.1 so why it wouldn't for you?
Regards,
Nomax.
Well, perhaps because you are using windows:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; fr-FR; rv:1.8.1.2)
Gecko/20070222 SeaMonkey/1.1.1
On linux it installs in different directories than my OOo. I'm going
through the output now to see what all the script does; but suffice it
to say that I've not got it working on a standard debian (Ubunutu)
system (yet).
Do you mean the RPM? Then OOo is surely installed into another directory
on (Open)SUSE distro.
Too bad Novell didn't made his intallation script more interoperable
then... :-(
