Tried a current version of OpenOffice? Otherwise have your friend resend
it with just .doc format. They should probably set their default to .doc
as well since it seems most people I talk to are still on an older version
of microsoft office still.
Good luck.

Pardon my ignorance, but why do I need to decrypt a message that is intended for public viewing?
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
It’s not encrypted, so you don’t decrypt it. The message was in the
clear, which is why you were able to read it.
The message is, however, signed. Signing is done so you know it’s from me
and not some 3vil h@x0r posing as me (unless, of course, they’ve stolen my
private key, in which case all bets are off).
Good luck.

Open Office should do the trick; I go between Open Office and Microsoft Office all the time with no problems.

I think Barry and I assume this is known, but OpenOffice comes w/SUSE (and
most distros, for that matter) so you shouldn’t need to do much more than
load it.
Good luck.

OpenOffice definitely does the job… I won’t rant about MS here… I’m trying really hard.
OpenOffice 3 has a builtin Office OpenXML importer, however it isn’t that great. Currently, odf-converter works better.
x86 http://download.go-oo.org/tstnvl/odf-converter/RPMS/i586/odf-converter-2.5-2.i586.rpm
x86-64 http://download.go-oo.org/tstnvl/odf-converter/RPMS/x86_64/odf-converter-2.5-2.x86_64.rpm
Thanks to everyone on this post… saved my bacon.
Perhaps, but you can get the Go-OO version of OO3.1 now.
OpenOffice can open all those files: docx, xlsx etc.
In order to make it seamless, make sure that file associations exist for those extensions.
How? I clicked on the 1-click install button on their website and it didn’t work. Can’t remember the error message though.

As long as you have the OO repository configured, try using Online update in YaST; it’s not as quick as 1-click but it works.
What’s the url of the oo repository?

Search for OpenOffice_org
You can find OpenOffice 3.1 there, if that’s what you want.
Copy the url in the right corner of the result block you’re interested
in and add as url to your repo list.
Cheers! And I do realise I was being a bit lazy, apologies 
Installed it from the stable repo - everything seemed to install fine but now Writer no longer starts…
Solved. I had a Writer document open - closing it and restarting Writer worked, I’m now on version 3.1.
