I have and it is not too bad. I imported a Word2K file with frames and
it imported it fairly well. I had to only reposition a couple of the
frames and reapply some formatting. The formatting issue is related to
the problem of font mapping. If your system doesn't have the original
fonts, then StarOffice must guess as to what fonts that you do have are
closest to the original. I haven't tried SO on importing very complex
documents (master documents, TOCs, and so on) yet so I can't give you
any feedback to how well that would work.
