by openoffice.
What incompatiblity issues will i have with anything
that i created with microsoft office suite period and
wish to bring them over to openoffice.
Can I do either one if I choose to work with openoffice..thanks
OpenOffice Writer has excellent, but not perfect compatibility with
Word. Also, it does not work with the new Office 2007 .DOCX files. You
can read & write older Word (.DOC)documents with Writer, that can also
be used in Microsoft Office. Another thing to consider is the Sun ODF
plug-in, which enables Microsoft Office to work with the ISO standard
ODF file formats that OpenOffice uses by default.
