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.
I had exactly the same problem, but the only person who reported a
problem had Microsoft Office 2007 and was running it on a Mac. You can
download the RTF file from here:

That's the only negative report about the file that I had. Maybe other
users had the same problem but never reported it to me.
Using Wordpad (I don't have Word) on WinXP, the .rtf file from John
Jason's URL opened fine and the table looked good, except that the
special characters didn't display properly. In OOo, it worked perfectly.
Pak-Kei, have you been able to upload a file somewhere?
