Subject: Re: [users] how is openoffice compatible with microsoft Word?
Hi Michael,
There are two ways to deal with your problem:
1) Encourage your recipients to install OpenOffice.
2) Save your files in Microsoft Office format. Use 'file / save as', and
select 'Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP (.doc)' in the pick list title 'save as
type'. If you used advanced formatting in your files, some may be lost. If
the recipients don't need to edit your files, export them as PDF and send
that instead. Maybe send both.

I have installed Openoffice, but most people have Word and therefore
cannot open the documents I send them, eg attached to emails. How can I
advise receivers to open my Openoffice documents?
Otherwise I must pay for Word, which I would obviously rather not do.
Many thanks,
Michael Garratt.
