OK. That works. But it's kind of a back-handed approach. What I was trying to do was to 
double-click on an xlsx document itself, right click on "open with" and have it 
open with OO. It really SHOULD since I have both MS Office and OO installed. But for some 
reason, my system doesn't seem to recognize that OO is installed.

As may have been suggested [this assumes you are using windoze], you need to 
change the defaults for the default app to open a file when you click on it.  
See the previous posts in this thread [I don't use MS windoze and don't 
remember the exact procedure].


Windows will work like your Linux: open the OO program, go to the file prompt, 
and find the file you want to open and click on it.
