I cannot send open office 2.2 attachments to others with MS word that they are able to open and read. How and I correct this?

Thank you

If there's no necessity for the others to edit such a file
(only to open and to read it) the best result would be to export
as *.pdf (File|Export as PDF ... or File|Send|E-mail as PDF ...).

Sun ODF Plug in 1.0 for Microsoft Office Available Now as a Free Download

Microsoft Office users can now import and export to
Open Document Format (ODF)

The Sun ODF Plug in for Microsoft Office gives users of Microsoft
Word, Excel and Powerpoint the ability to read, edit and save to the
ISO-standard Open Document Format. The ODF Plug in is available as a
free download from the Sun Download Center (SDLC).

The Plug in is easy to setup and use, the conversion happens
transparently and the additional memory footprint is minimal.
Microsoft Office users now can have seamless two-way conversion of
Microsoft Office documents to and from Open Document. The ODF Plug in
runs on Microsoft Windows and is available in English. More language
support will be available in later releases.
