--- Comment #8 from Serge <br...@tut.by> ---
In MSO 2007 and above there are two file extensions for files that support
OOXML: .docx and .docm. As far as I know macro support is the only difference
between them. .docm is macro enabled document and .docx is not.

For me it is important to know that a document has no macro code inside 
because nowadays macro enabled documents are used to spread malware

If you at last decide to implement docx save/export support in AOO do not
forget about 'macro disabled' document format.

P.S.
Is there any ODF based file format I can use to store documents and be sure
that there is no macro code inside them?
