MS Word and Excel cannot open files saved in OpenOffice format. However,

-- for example, you can save a text document in MS Word format, and an
Excel document in MS Excel format. Then MS Office can open them.
Whenever saving across formats like that, there is a chance of something
getting lost in translation. Simple documents come across very well. The
more complex the document is, the greater the chance that something
won't translate perfectly.
I've found that using RTF as an interchange format (which it was
designed for, after all) provides the best results for transferring
files between OOo and MS.
