This is a | shortcoming in MSO2010 only supporting ODF 1.1, please see here for | further details. | | ODF 1.2 Conforming Documents | | LibreOffice 3.5 writes valid ODF 1.2 | | Microsoft Office only officially supports ODF 1.1 and complains that | ODF 1.2 and ODF 1.2 extended documents written by LibreOffice 3.5 | are invalid. | | The warning from Microsoft Office can be safely ignored, and the | "Repair" option will import the document. | | For users that find this annoying, a workaround is to open | Tools->Options->Load/Save->General and set "ODF format version" to | "1.0/1.1". However, please note that this will cause some | information to be lost when storing documents. `---- Instead of importing ODT documents right inside Microsoft Office, one can have LibreOffice do the ODT->DOC(X) conversion and import the LO created DOC(X) file in to Microsoft Office. For creating DOC/DOCX/PDF files right from Org see Info node with following title: (org) Extending ODT export. ps: I have not used MS Word at all. --
