Tim,
Thanks for the link. The Viewer displays the doc perfectly. The weird thing,
though, even for Microsoft, is that you have to right-click and select in
order to open links.
Though vaguely aware of it, it never occurred to me to download it. Have
always used Office for the past 20 years. Just sick of lining Gates'
pockets.

Have you tried to see what the Office 2000 and 2002 files
look like in a Word Viewer?
This is the link for Word 2003 Viewer. I just googled for it.

See if the Word files look OK through the Viewer.
That will save he-said/she-said type of discussion.
If it look good using the Viewer, and not good in OOo,
then that answers the question.
If you have an over version of Office, you may find a
extention from MS to view newer version within you
older version. That is what I did for viewing/importing
Office 2007 files into my MS Office package. Although
I use OpenOffice.org for over 98% (a guess) of my office
needs. I have little trouble with what you are saying,
but that is what MS Viewers are for.
