    While most intelligent species are using PDF documents online, I've run into a couple that will only open in MSWord. Shame they won't be getting my biz.

    Just a quickie about openoffice, I know it can read microsoft formats, but is the reverse true, or do I have to save documents etc in the right format on openoffice?

    It troubles me slightly, because I'm running openoffice at home at when I have assignments for Uni I email them to myself and print them out there.

    Svejk: In Open Office preferences you can set the format your documents will saved in. Just choose .doc and you should be good to go.
