Hi Veda, You are probably using Open Office 1.1.something. The 1.1 series does have limited database support. It can use dbase format databases (check the Help files or go to documentation.openoffice.org for more info.) It can also access other formats through drivers known as ODBC or JDBC.
The new version which is currently being tested and refined is 2.0 which contains its own built in database program. You can download 2.0 from the openoffice web site. However, I have heard that the database part is still quite unstable, so it may be worth waitng until the final version of 2.0 comes out before the end of the year.
