Can I copy a document from Open Office onto Word 10

HitAndMiss

I want to copy a document I have on Open Office onto my Word 10 document file which I have recently installed. How can I accomplish this transfer please.I wish to send the document out to a group of people both in Open Office and Word Format.

Hi

I suggect you save as .doc and .odf and attach both formats.

Bear in mind that there be slight variations as each format is saved. But I would concentrate on the .doc format as OpenOffice can open them quite readily, rather than the other way around.

If in doubt please ask.

Alternatively send it to all people as a Rich Text Format file (.RTF). This is accepted by all* word processors.

For Word 2010 (and no doubt other word processors) the file size of an RTF file CAN be very much larger than a .DOCX file IF the document contains tables or graphics.

* all that I've come across!

Are the others expected to edit it and send back comments for you to merge, or is it for read-only ?
