How can I open an "openoffice" ".odt" file in Word 2003
I have Office 2003 at home, and I am given Openoffice at work. I emailed
some ".odt" files home so I could do some work, and I can't open them in Word 2003. Maybe I just need to download Openoffice. Openoffice has no problem working with Microsoft Office files. Thanks for any help Alex |

There is no import filter to allow Word to open .odt files. You can
save the files in .doc format from OpenOffice and mail those to your home. It might be easier, though, to install OpenOffice at home. The price is right :-) and there's no problem with having both programs on the same machine. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.

MS has promised an addin for Office 2007 that supports Open Document format. I haven't seen it yet though. -- Terry Farrell - MS Word MVP "Alex" wrote in message ...

Thanks for that: I still haven't tried it though.
