OpenSUSE and OpenOffice

Hi,

I have OpenSUSE 11.3 installed on my netbook (Acer AspireOne), and for the most part I absolutely love it but there is one tiny annoyance. When I double-click any OpenOffice document (.odt, etc), the system prompts me asking if I want to execute, display, etc. the document. For Microsoft Office documents (.doc, etc) this does not happen and OpenOffice just automatically opens the document. This only happens with documents with an OpenOffice extension.

Now, I've run different versions of Linux on this netbook (primarily Ubuntu Netbook Remix 10.04 and 10.10) and this never happened. Honestly I prefer OpenSUSE because it's more like a "real" OS than a stripped down menu-driven version. But this one thing drives me batty. Any suggestions?
