My friend is using your current Open Office. Yesterday, we discovered
the files from it do NOT seem to be compatible with MS Office 2001 for
Mac -- and possibly not with any MS Office.
Yes, we saved the Writer file as MS Word for Win ME-2000-XP -- but the
file still could not be opened in MS Word 2001 for Mac.
We also tried opening a Open Office Presentations file in MS
PowerPoint 2001 for Mac, but it would not open.
What is wrong, what can we do? Is this incompatibiilty also happening
on Windows machines? MS Office for both Mac and Windows are supposed
to open the same formats, so I have to think if we can't open these
files in the Mac version, we also won't be able to open them in the
Windows version.
Lastly, is there any way to set the Save function to automatically
default to MS Word for Win ME-2000-XP -- as it is a pain in the neck
to try to remember that each and every time.
Thank you.

Whoops. Forgot your last question. Yes. Choose
Tools>Options>Load/Save>General and choose the relevant format under
"Always save as". Also investigate the "Microsoft Office" submenu under
Tools>Options>Load/Save.
