This add-on component to OpenOffice.org 2.0's Writer program will convert the open document to be compatible with Microsoft's .DOC format. Documents saved to .DOC after using this component work as well or better than documents exported directly to .DOC.

The latest version now supports not only text frames, but also pictures and OLE objects inserted into the document. All are saved even when they are anchored to or within other text frames frames. This version currently plays with AS_CHARACTER anchorings a bit. Running the component will convert them, in-place, to AT_CHARACTER frames. There are still some issues with the positioning of frames that were within other frames and of converted AS_CHARACTER frames. There are also a couple of exceptional cases that may occur when a parent frame is at the edge of the page. Currently, this component only works when text is set to orient itself left-to-right. I will have a look at supporting right-to-left and vertical text once the above issues are cleared up. Future versions will bring up an Alert-Box which will summarize all the changes made in the text.
