It seems this converter is deficient for real use of ODF. The Word 2007 plugin says it can only import the ODF read-only and by translating it to OpenXML which is a potentially lossy operation. To save the ODF document, it needs to be exported to a new filename.

This means that you can't use Word 2007 to work on a ODF file, as each time you need to make a change, you chew up the document. It's not a workable solution as-is.
