    Using OpenOffice


    I've been using MSWord for years. I am now using OpenOffice Writer. With the dozens of files I made with Word which have a file extension of DOC or DOCX. If I click on one of those files it will open MSWord but I want them to open OpenOffice Writer by default. How do I do that?

    :)

    Opening files

    Unable to open "OpenOffice" files without opening the OpenOffice first. The file I load can used with OpenOffice turned off after I have the file. I'm using Windows 10.

    Openoffice

    OpenOffice does not have an app like Outlook. Outlook is the only Office app where phone-compatibility matters (calendar/contacts/notes).

    So, you can use OpenOffice just fine, and it won't be a problem with your phone.

    If you have QuickOffice on the phone, then when you use OpenOffice, check if you still can save files (documents, presentations, spreadsheets) in Microsoft formats.

    Go to control panel select default programs then select Associate a file type with or a protocol with a program.
