This doesn't make sense to me. OOo doesn't have a gtk2 interface - it
uses its own toolkit. Are you talking about its ability to use the same
fonts and colours as the Gnome desktop? This happens if OOo detects
that a Gnome desktop is present, which is quite tricky to do properly.
AFAICS from the code, it looks for the Gnome session manager or Nautilus
desktop (GNOME_SM_PROXY or NAUTILUS_DESKTOP_WINDOW_ID properties). If
you do not have those running the detection will not work.
You can override the detection by uncommenting the line in
/etc/openoffice/openoffice.conf:
# force OOo to use theme settings from gnome or KDE or disable?
# set to 'gnome', 'kde' or 'none' to override the autodetection
#export OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP=gnome
Is that what you want?
