Text:

As root, type 'yum list openoffice*'.  Find the packages you want and do a 'yum
install <package1> <package2>'

Graphical:

Go to Add/Remove Software, select 'Applications' from the left panel, select
'Office/Productivity' from the right panel, click on the 'Optional Packages'
button, and select the openoffice packages you are interested in.  When you're
done, click 'Close' and 'Apply'.

Hope this helps.
