You could see if MSWord has an opener for StarOffice documents - IIRC this is what OpenOffice used to be called.....

I think there is a converter pack for MS office, try the office resource kit from MS themselves

You could try this:
open Word with no file, go to File --> Open, and in the file of type drop-down, choose "Recover text from any file". Browse to the file
and open it. It should recover the text, but might lose some of the formatting. As long as you don't have embedded images or something in it, it
should be OK....
Cheers
