Is there a plugin or script that lets Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac OS X open and save files in the OpenDocument ODF (.odt, .ods, .odp, etc.) format? I am thinking something like what you can do in Office 2007.

I realise I could use an external converter, such as OpenOffice.org, just wondering if there is a more direct way.

If such a plugin does not exist, would it be possible to manually make such a plugin? Such as via AppleScript (or anything else)?

Thank you.
