Thanks. I was looking for something internal to 2.3. But your solution worked.

My new Open Office 2.3 installation automatically opens all .rtf documents as Open Office if I chose to allow it to open MS Word .doc files. My old Open Office 2.1 did not open .rtf files, my preference. Can I set the new program to automatically open just MS Word.doc files and not .rtf files? If so, please outline the steps.

You can set whatever application you wish to handle the various file types, by following the instructions below. In your case, you'd find an RTF file and then select Word as the application.

Changing file associations

Right click on file icon
Select Open With > Choose Program...
Check "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" and choose the desired application.
If that method is not available, follow the directions listed here:
