The file size is of 50 MB (OpenOffice file). While opening the file the system hangs completely.

Processor : Core 2 Duo

RAM : 1 GB

HDD : 250 GB

OS : Ubuntu 10.10

Note: I have tried LibreOffice too. I experience the same problem both in OpenOffice and in LibreOffice. Any other alternative way to open the file?

There are a couple of programs that can open odf files, at least Koffice and Abiword should be able to open it.

You can also try to open it with Google Docs and save it again.

Anyway, you should open a bug in OpenOffice and attach the file there if it's possible (i.e. it's not confidential or personal).
