OpenOffice should still be able to open it.
Of course, it could be the old OpenOffice/Star Office .swx format, which
the current OO should be able to read.
From the 4.0 Release Notes:
Changes that Impact Backwards Compatibility
Module binfilter removed
We no longer read or write the legacy StarOffice file formats (files
with extensions .sdw, .sdc, .sdd, etc.). Removal of this code makes
the OpenOffice codebase easier to maintain. The legacy formats have
never been the default format in any version of OpenOffice. Users
with legacy StarOffice documents are advised to re-save them into ODF
format (*.odt, *.ods, *.odp, etc.) *before upgrading* to Apache
OpenOffice 4.0. This can be done using File - Wizards - Document
Converter in OpenOffice 3.x OpenOffice 1.x files (*.sxw, *.sxc, *.sxi)
are still supported.

Thanks, Martin,
It looks like somewhere along the way I blew it.
