Yes, it works fine. OO.o uses odbc to access to a postgres database.
There is OOoverBD, a document in french with screenshots:
http://www.linux-france.org/prj/edu/archinet/OOo/
for example :

IMHO, the feature include in OO.o is very useful to produce documents 
including datas from a database but is is not the best way to manage  a 
database.

Very good ! I believe in this.

A lot of people who want to migrate to Linux told me that the replacement of 
MS-access was the last obstacle. (The next step will be the professional 
software).
