The first few times I worked on Word files in the OpenOffice.org Writer program, I was satisfied if the documents opened at all. That’s a long way from being able to trust the open-source app with a Word file from your boss that you need to work on and return with all functions and formatting intact. These steps won’t guarantee trouble-free file transfers between Word and OOo Writer, but they’ll help you prevent some of the most common conversion glitches.
