Download Open Office from HERE. What you get is a tar.gz file
Extract the file with this command
tar xzvf OOo_3.2.0_LinuxIntel_install_en-US_deb.tar.gz
If you wish you can remove the existing version with this command.
sudo apt-get remove openoffice*.*
Assuming you extracted the file to your desktop run the following two commands.
sudo dpkg -i ~/Desktop/OOO320_m12_native_packed-1_en-US.9483/DEBS/*.deb
sudo dpkg -i ~/Desktop/OOO320_m12_native_packed-1_en-US.9483/DEBS/desktop-integration/openoffice.org3.2-debian-menus_3.2-9472_all.deb
