Edit: I parsed OP's "OpenOffice" as "Libre Office"—interpret the following accordingly.

I've poked at [LibreOffice] a few times, and as far as I can tell, it comes close to being a direct replacement for Word. (Can't speak to Excel.) I.e., no training needed, at least to the extent that I've played with it.

Coincidentally, this topic may be gaining new currency:
FUCKING #Microsoft

Word had just started emitting a popup asking me to enable "Connected Experiences" when I go to select stuff from a old, locked Word doc. LOL no.

A brief search suggests the only way to shut this shit down is to deinstall & then reinstall Word.

Yeah, right. If I have to go to those lengths, LibreOffice it is, thanks!
