To me this sounds like OpenOffice is saving a later version of the 
OpenDocument (ODT) format than Write understands (similar to Microsoft 
Word 95 not being able to read documents that have been written by 
Microsoft Word 97). In that case, there may be a way to tell Open Office 
to save in the older ODT version, so that Write can still read it.
I hope someone else more proficient with Write (Abiword) and OpenOffice 
will either confirm or disprove my suspicion.
