I think I would like to open documents from emails into the open office programmes, but I do not know how to do it. Please can you help. I have a very old Word programme that opens for letter attachments, but it opens in a windows 95 programme. Would now like to open them in the new programme.

From Writer's Help:

To change the association of Microsoft Office file name extensions to open the files either in OpenOffice.org or in Microsoft Office, using Microsoft Windows:

  1.

     Exit OpenOffice.org and the OpenOffice.org Quickstarter.

  2.

     Run the OpenOffice.org Setup program:

     Click the Windows *Start* button, choose *Control Panel*, click
     *Add or Remove Programs*, select the OpenOffice.org 2.2 entry,
     click *Change*.

  3.

     In the OpenOffice.org Setup, check the *Modify* option and click
     *Next* until you see the file types page.

  4.

     Select or deselect the file types. Click *OK* and complete the
     OpenOffice.org Setup program.
