You can certainly do that.

You must provide an offer to give the source code to anyone who you give or
sell the software to, and you must provide the source code to anyone who you
give or sell the software to upon request.

The license that OpenOffice is issued under can be found here:

http://www.openoffice.org/licenses/lgpl_license.html

In your situation it would be smart to read the OpenOffice licensing page:

http://www.openoffice.org/license.html

You can find more information and very clear explanations of the GPL here:

http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl-faq.html

Don't be intimidated, these references have all been deliberately written to be
easy for a non-lawyer to understand.  Basically, if you distribute OpenOffice
to your customers (give away or sell at your option) you must provide them with
the source code offer that I described above.  That's pretty much it, in most
circumstances.
