If I am correct, Corel 8 documents are the old WordPerfect format. For 
copyright reasons support for this format was removed in the more recent 
version(s) of OpenOffice. Individual documents can be converted free of charge 
by an online service at www.zamzar.com; it is in my view worth converting them 
and moving to a open format, (.odt etc) as supported by OpenOffice.

Note that, wth any format conversion, some reformatting is likely to be needed.
