	So the original .ods file was on windows. How did you get 
Open Office to open a file on windows? Did you mount windows 
onto your Ubuntu?

	I think your original .ods should still be there on windows.

	Your linux OO puts it's files in a special place on linux 
that is set by you. Look there as well.
