I'm not sure why you're seeing "gibberish", as it's entirely possible to
have MS Office and OpenOffice on the same computer, as I do at work.  I
assume when you installed, the file associations were set to make
OpenOffice the default for MS Office file types.  If so, it's easy to
change them back.

Changing default file type

1) Click on Tools > Options.
2) Click on the "+" beside Load/Save
3) Select General.
4) In the Default file format section, there will be a pair of drop down
lists, where you can match the document type with the file format.
