How do I change the zip to odt.  When I right-click on the file then click 
Rename, I can not see the file extension to replace the zip with odt.

The .zip files *are*, in fact, OpenOffice Writer (.odt) document 
files, but - as you say - sometimes arrive masquerading as a zip 
archives (which is what OpenOffice document files are, in 
fact).  Don't try to extract the zipped archive (or let your 
operating system do so).  Instead, just rename the whole downloaded 
files from .zip back to .odt and you will have no problem.

I trust this helps.
