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.
