I deleted the OpenOffice.org Writer files. I found it too hard to get it to
work with my Word documents. They weren't saving as Word and it was very
frustrating!!! I have a resume I'm trying to get ready to send out in Word,
but nothing is happening. In my frustration, I simply deleted the whole
OpenOffice package. Hope this email finds its way to you and that you tell me
it was okay to do this. Thank you in advance. Any further advice would be
greatly appreciated! Jane Declet
All you should have to do to save in MS Word format is select File >
Save As and from the File Type drop down, pick Microsoft Word
97/2000/XP. Then your document is saved in Micorsoft Office format.
You can also set an option so that OpenOffice.org always saves in MS
Office format (and then you don't need to do a Save As to get an Office
compatible document).
- Click Tools > Options
- Click the + next to Load/Save to open that menu
- Click on General
- Find the section labeled Default file format.
There are 2 drop down boxes here. You can select each document type and
set the default file format. So for example to set Writer to always
save in MS Word format, select Text document on the left drop down box,
and select Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP on the right box.
If you do this, then you don't need to remember to explicitly save your
docs in MS Office format.
I hope this helps, and you give OpenOffice.org a second chance.
