I use oo.org all the time, and have found it imports most .doc files, 
fine,  I do however have problems with application forms, but to be fair 
I don't have msword.exe to compare it,  (I lost my home essentials cdrom), 

There are quite a few books around, and documentation on the scripting 
thats built in.  both in free and published form.

I guess it shows home users have different needs to business users.
