Anyway OpenOffice does not open .docx files too. In doze, the best FOSS option for all file formats is OxygenOffice. It is a modified enhancement of OO. It also has the option of saving files in 2007 .docx format. I am not supporting that format but just highlighting OxygenOffice's wide compatibility.
To the best of my knowledge, OpenOffice 3 can read docx file but cannot save in docx format. In the "Open" dialog box OpenOffice 3 does give me option of Microsoft Word 2007 XML and Microsoft Word 2007 XML Template.
I had installed OO3 on doze machines and could not open .docx files. In my Lenny I use 2.4 and had to request my client who uses the legal 2007, to resend his file in old doc format. OxygenOffice works wonders. I had even searched for plugins in OO's database but could not find support for docx.
