Actually the only difference I can tell between StarOffice and OO db wise is that StarOffice comes with a limited licence for Adabas engine. Apart from that it appears you can pretty much do whatever you can do in Access...

However, it needs Access to run (I've got it going under Access 97, but it's pretty general) and takes time. Remember, also, that the tables are typically only a smallish part of a full Access DB, and I doubt most of the rest of it will be easily convertable by anything. Of course, if you do find something, please let me know - I'm currently rewriting the Access DB from hell in something sensible... -- --- #include disclaimer.h Matthew Palmer, Geek In Residence http://ieee.uow.edu.au/~mjp16 -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
