I got it working now, thanks for the help. New problem though, I can't
paste anything into a Calc spreadsheet - can't find anything on the
support forums about it either, any thoughts?

Thanks for getting back to me, I installed the X11 but it still won't
open for me. I dragged it to my Applications folder, than to my Dock, it
opens for a second, than closes - I run a intel mac (the MacBook Pro) -

Not necessarily. There is a Mac/Intel version at
ftp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX that you might
like to test. I say test since it is in RC but not yet released.
SKuttlebut is that it works quite reasonably.

Can't figure out how to open the dang program. I added to my
applications folder, but when I open it, nothing really happens. I right
clicked and viewed the content of the folder and found a whole world in
there, but still can't seem to find where I open the word editor or
spreadsheet editor. Sorry I'm such a newbie!

There are two versions of OpenOffice.org for the Mac. One is written to
use the Unix part of MacOS X; you must install the X11 part of MacOS X
from your CD-ROM to use it. (X11 is the part of Unix that does windows
and stuff. Since MacOS X has its own Mac-flavored windows, it normally
leaves X11 out, since it is only needed to run windowing Unix programs.)
The other is called NeoOffice (or NeoOffice/J). It uses Java to run as a
normal MacOS program, and would probably be easier for you to use. See
<URL:http://www.neooffice.org>. (Note, however, that it does not, at
present, run on Intel Macs, and that, because it is a modified version
of the original OpenOffice.org, it is a couple of versions behind.)
The long-term plan is to make a straightforward MacOS ("Cocoa") version;
but there are complications.
