You need to set up OpenOffice as a default application for ODS, XLS, XLSX.
OpenOffice does this for you by default when you install it on your
computer under this dialog:
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOoAuthors_User_Manual/Getting_Started/File_associations
If you miss that chanced and AOO is already on your box, making the
association manually should be done from the windows side. Here is a
process on how Windows 8 do file association:

Good Afternoon
Please accept my apologies if I have sent this to the wrong department but
I have tried all the information pages to see if they could help
before contacting anyone and I am struggling to find an answer to my
problem,
I have subscribed to Open Office for a long time and have never had any
problems - up to two weeks ago I had a Dell PC with Vista on and
Open Office worked fine on that
I had some emails with Spreadsheets attached and they opened fine on
Windows 8 but now if I try that all I get is the file option asking me
to choose a program from the list to save it in - and Open Office is not
one of them
Why are the Spreadsheets not saving - I put in save to ODF but to no
effect, I just do not know how to correct this
I would appreciate any help with this
Many thanks & Kind Regards
Rose Galloway
