That is the default normally.

That OpenOffice.org opens a new document and not the one you double-clicked on is an unusual problem that I’ve never encountered in five years use of OpenOffice.org.

Is it only the one document that this happens with, or every OpenOffice.org document? It almost seems as though the document is bad and so OpenOffice.org just open without out, and provides a new document because that’s what it does when you open OpenOffice Writer without providing a document name.

Please provide the name and version of your operating system and the version of OpenOffice.org you are using. That might be of some help.
