My version of OpenOffice2 complains on save about the openoffice1 format, even for new documents. I'm not sure why that is, but its' a beta...
Need to translate a word or phrase from one language to another? Word XP and 2003 have a very basic translation tool built in, but you can get to the excellent AltaVista Babel Fish translation tool on the Web just as easily, and it has support for many more languages.
On Linux (or BSD, I guess), I solve this problem by installing dictd and the translation dictionary I need. There are many more than in you distro maintainer's list, so Google for them. For example, I found a<nobr> <wbr></nobr>.deb of the great Thai-Eng-Thai dictionary, Lexitron, in dictd format, and it saves me from loading the full java version of the dictionary all the time. Dicts are available for geography, religions, witty sayings, and acronyms, as well.
