That also illustrates my point.  While I can read the text, formatting,
such as the bullets disappears.  Also, the words "Heading 1" and "Title"
are centered in OpenOffice and "Heading 1" also lost it's colour and
bold attributes.  The multilevel list, which in Word Viewer shows
bullets, parentheses, etc., appears as shown below.

So, it would appear that the Novell version of OpenOffice does a very
poor job of working with .DOCX files.

When I get to work tomorrow, I'll have to try installing that
Compatibility Pack on my work computer, which has Office 2003 on it,
along with the Sun ODF plugin, to see how well it can convert from .DOCX
to .ODT.
