Changing save default in Open Office


Recently, Bob Owens spent a lot of time at Ferrisburgh - Thank goodness, thank you Bob. Anyway, the tip he gave me is one that I think Open Office users need to know. He only uses Open Office for his work - and has the preferences save everything as if it was written on Microsoft Office.
Here's how you do it -
Go to Tools - Options - Load/Save and you will get this screen. Scroll down to find the Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP. This way what you save for others will be more readable by those that haven't discovered the joys of Open Office.
