Informaticien dans une association disposant d'une vingtaine de stations Macintosh sous Mac OS X, j'aimerais faire migrer l'ensemble des stations vers la suite NeoOffice ou OpenOffice.

Translation of Pierre's post:
Hello, as a data processing specialist in an association having a score of Macintosh stations under Mac OS X, I would like to make migrate all of the stations to NeoOffice or OpenOffice. Alas, this is not happening without difficulty.
This morning my employer received a document by email which I cannot read with NeoOffice 2.1 nor with OpenOffice 2.1. I suspect that Open Office and NeoOffice use the same converters. By changing the extension of the document to read it as text, one distinguishes in the the document the version of Microsoft Word which was used to create it: Microsoft Word 10.1 Is there a solution to allow the reading of this document?
Thank you in advance for your assistance and advice.

On parvient à lire quelques phrases dans Neo, en choisissant comme encodage Europe Occidentale (Windows-1252/WinLatin1) et en allant page 3.
Je pense que tout le texte se trouve là , le reste des 59 pages doit être plein de renseignements de formatage ou qqch comme ça.

Pierre can't read a MsOffice document which he received in an e-mail. He gives a link so that you can download that document and try to read it.
It's possible to open it in Neo and to read a part of the text on page 3. And maybe, the whole text is there, the rest being some formatting data ?

Pierre,
Je n'arrive pas à ouvrir le fichier non plus. Vous avez raison que les convertisseurs de NeoOffice et OpenOffice sont les mêmes. D'habitude je n'ai pas de problèmes à lire ni à enregistrer les fichiers en format .doc.
Si' j'ai raison que le format du fichier est celui de Word pour Mac X, je vois ces trois solutions:
1) Demander à l'envoyeur de le renvoyer dans un autre format
2) Si vous avez un ordinateur avec MS Word, essayer de ouvrir avec Word et le convertir à un format convenable.
3) Acheter MacLinkPlus et l'utiliser de le convertir à un format convenable.
English summary:
I can't open the file either. I am thinking that MSW 10.1 is a Mac version of Word. I notice that Neo does not have any Word for Mac converters--at least not for saving (no doubt the OOo folks didn't think this important). Trying to open it in Appleworks didn't work, either. While AW will convert some Word for Mac files, version X is not supported.
I suggested three options
1) ask the sender to resend in a different format
2) try to open it with Word, if he has access to a computer with Word installed
3) by MacLinkPlus to do the conversion. (link provided in the French text).
