Lisa,
I cannot comment on how the mac install functions, but in the Windows
Install, if you desire OOo to be the default for file types other than
OOo file types, then you must explicitly state this during the install.
So, if you were using a windows computer I would say that this occurred
specifically because you told it to. Note that this is an easy (and
common) error to make. Many years ago, this was the default and you had
to uncheck it if you did not want it, now, you must check it if you do.

First - hardly a rant - merely expressing an opinion. I still contend
that is presumptuous to set OO as default launcher. Second - I don't
use Microsoft - only save my Pages (Mac) documents as Word .doc for
those who do not have Mac OS.
When I do the "Open With", it only allows me to check a box that says
"Always open this document with" - there is no box for "Change All
Like This"....
Thanks anyway....I'll have to figure out how to make OO not my default
launch...
Does this help:

btw - I don't mind working with OO, just prefer the option is all - no
offense meant.....
Although it is not true of all people, my opinion is that it should be
difficult to take offense at your comments :-)
