I am a long term word perfect user, and I do like a lot of the Open Office 
features. But the special character selection is lacking. To any one writing 
scientific work, you need good special characters, such as greek letters, 
percents, degrees symbolss. In Wp theres a global hotkey, and it has a wide 
selection of these symbols scientific, mathematic, greek etc. and allows you to 
type in the name of the character  5,23 (etc for list 5, character 23) which is 
a VERY handy tool to someone using a lot of characters,  in Open office the 
special characters need a lot of work for writing these type of documents. This 
could easily be added to the right click menu (which also needs the highlight 
feature added to it). Overall i'm impressed with Open Office, I just need the 
special characters. (see picture of corel menu)

 found the special character features in O
