Most recent OpenOffice can do it very good. I am using OpenOffice.org 1.0.1. I wrote a document with Microsoft word and embedded an excel sheet object, and open it with OpenOffice, double click the sheet , OpenOffice can launch Excel to edit it. After excel saved the sheet. OpenOffice can store correct. Just a bit ugly. and that Word also can open it. anyway, I think AbiWord did good for some users normal requirement. I just don't know last goal. It will be a competitor of OpenOffice ? or only a lightweight Word processor.
