Description umr5174 2005-05-31 15:08:40 UTC 
In a document text, I create the formula
"A+1 newline
alignl B newline
alignr C newline
alignc D"
then save the document as equ_OOo2.odt then as equ_OOo2.doc MS Word 97 document.
Then I close the document and reopen the MS Word 97 one:
B, C and D are centered because the formula is
"alignc { stack {
 size 12{ ital "A+""1 "}  {} # 
 size 12{B}  {} # 
 size 12{C}  {} # 
 size 12{D}  {} 
} } {}"

I can confirm this on WinXP with OOo1.9.113.
But I think, that there is a fundamental problem. You cannot align single lines
in Word97 with an alignment but only the whole stack. In Word97 you can only
align the single characters with dragging. So the alignment in OOo must be faked
somehow for Word97 and reimport cannot know, that there was an alignment before.

Due to resource limitation this will be fixed for successor of OO 2.0.
