Right click on the file and choose "Open With" then choose Open Office or 
whatever is your choice. When saving choose save as and select the file type.

Subject: Downloading MS Office Documents 

I have  Open Office 4.1.2. When I download an Office document I get a box 
saying "You are trying to use Office but don't have Office." I previous 
versions these documents would automatically convert. Excel documents are 
opened in Calc, etc.I tried using the Load/Save feature in the Tools-Options 
menu but that had no effect. How do I get these documents to open in Open 
Office? DARNLEY W. HOWARD
