Every month our bank sends us what appears to be the result of a mail-merge in
Word format; I have no idea how the data is contained in the .doc file, but
opening it in WordViewer 97 shows the expected data (i.e. the result of the
mail-merge), and opening it in OO.o shows the field names inside angle brackets,
like a document in the middle of the mail-merge operation.

Everything I've tried to view the data fails. The imported document doesn't
appear to have a database associated, and OO.o doesn't recognize it as a
mail-merge document.

Although the error ocurrs in Windows 98, I've already seen it in 1.1.4 in 
Linux. 
I'd rather send the file through e-mail than create an attachment here, since
it's somewhat sensitive data. (And I don't have Word installed anywhere to
recreate a similar document).
