Hope this question hasn't been asked too many times before as I don't know what to search for to find an answer.

I finally finished my MS and uploaded it to Smashwords (using Open Office saved as MS Word). Then I deleted the necessary bits and used the 2nd version to upload it to kdp at Amazon. At some point later, I realized it wasn't in MOBI format, however it's listed on the website and the sample reads fine on my downloaded app (I don't have a Kindle). Am I being deceived by the preview I read or did everything go fine even tho I didn't have the MOBI format? Thanks for your input.
