| Will you eventually be able to work with the new .docx format?

The "official" edition of OOo (OpenOffice.org) does not yet open files
in ".docx" format. As a temporary (or permanent) option, you might
consider downloading and installing the enhanced version of OOo called
"Oxygen Office Professional". This is still OOo, but this edition
includes a number of extras and enhancements, one of them being the
ability to open MS Word 2007 ".docx" files. The conversion is not 100%
perfect, but then neither is Microsoft's own Compatibility Pack for
earlier versions of Word [1].

Oxygen Office Professional can be downloaded from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ooop

It is a fairly large download (approx. twice the size of the "official"
edition) and you will need to completely uninstall any current version
of OOo before you install Oxygen Office Professional.

Hope this helps.
