Ensure Compatibility:
Make sure that the versions of Microsoft Office on both the Windows and Mac systems are compatible. Microsoft Office for Mac should be able to open files created with recent versions of Microsoft Office on Windows.
Transfer the Files:
Transfer the OpenOffice files from your Windows computer to your Mac. You can use methods like email, cloud storage, USB drive, or any other preferred method.
Open with Microsoft Office:
Double-click on the OpenOffice file, or open Microsoft Office on your Mac and use the "Open" option to browse and select the file you want to open.
Conversion Warning:
Microsoft Office may display a warning about potential formatting differences when opening OpenOffice files. Review and confirm the conversion if prompted.

Hoverver, there is a port of OpenOffice called NeoOffice for Mac or the new version of OpenOffice, 3.0.0, has a new aqua version of OpenOffice.
You can use OO.o 3.0.0 or NeoOffice to open .odt files on a mac.
