[plug] html -> word using OO

Hi Denis, what menu choices did you use?  I open the html document, and
"save as" only allows output in html formats or plain text where all
formatting is lost.  Even when open, I cant find anything that converts
from the "online format" to a word processor format.  Seems like once
its html, it wont go back!  Saw the traffic on the topic, but nothing
there actually described "how" you do it - and it appears that my OO
(built from source - 12 hour compile on 1.4 athlon!) may be missing
"something"!, so I dont even know IF I am missing something from the
menus.
