Hello everyone,
I am using OpenOffice 2.4 (but this problem also happened in previous 
versions),  and my problem is that I can format a document very nicely using 
tables or whatever.  However, when I save it as a .doc or as a .rtf, it'll open 
fine on my computer, but when I send that file to someone, and they open it 
using Microsoft Office, they get a document with lots of pages, and each 
section of the table on a separate page.  Therefore, a document of 3 pages with 
tables and headings becomes one of 21 pages with one sentence each at the 
beginning of the page.
This makes things very difficult, since if I format a CV, and then I send it as a job application to a prospective employer, they open up a jibberish document and end up trashing my CV because it is not formatted properly.

Assuming you're running Windows, you might want to install the free Microsoft Word Viewer, so you can see how your documents will look in Word.
