I have downloaded open office and have never had any office program installed

from a browsing list to open it. i.e. I try to open a ppt document on 
blackboard and I have to save it to my documents the choose open office to open 
it, from there I can choose open office to always open that document.  I do not 
want to have to save a document in order to open it. What is the way to make 
open office my defalt for that type of thing. I went to file type settings to 
check the association but I don't have, .doc, .xls, .ppt, etc... to choose. 
Help.


I'm not sure I understand your question. You say you have to save the file. Where are you getting it from? Email? When you install OpenOffice, it should set the file associations so that when you click on the appropriate file types, OpenOffice opens to work with that document. It should also work with email, though some email apps may require configuration.
