[TriLUG] StarOffice and UPG strangeness

I am using RH 7.2 and SO 5.2.   We have a shared directory set up for
people to use
(http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-7.2-Manual/ref-guide/s1-users-groups-private-groups.html). 
When someone saves a SO file into there home directory, edits that file
and then saves it to the shared directory, the permissions are the same
as on the file in their home directory.  All other programs seem to work
fine (Gimp, Nedit, pico, vi, etc.) but StarOffice insist on keeping the
group the User Private Group.  ARG!  Any suggestions?
