Might be easier to just install Neo Office direct on the mac, it's the OS X port of OpenOffice. No point running a virtualised version if you can run it native instead...

go native

I would have said remove and reinstall if all other windows apps are working

you can see the path by opening the windows command prompt and typing
set path

check properties of the link and browse to that folder to confirm it's ok
