I have had the same problem - and ended up saving ALL work done in open office as MS file types.... .doc .xls etc. When saving these types of files there does not appear to be a problem.
If other software writers can manage to write applications that run in Windows without problems, why can't contributors to Open Office. Seems like it is a pretty brain damaged application if it cannot save it's native file format in an operating system it was designed to run under. Isn't this the application that open source affecionados are hoping will oust MS dominance from the PC/Windows marketplace? I use OO purely because it is NOT an MS product, but it quite clearly is miles behind other products - and as such will probably never become a serously used application in the marketplace - a BIG shame.
