The functionality in OpenOffice.org is quite usable. I've not had an Access DB file to use, but have used it with dBASE files and spreadsheets. >> Connecting to existing databases in OpenOffice.org 2.0 >> http://searchopensource.techtarget.com/tip/1,289483,sid39_gci1162261,00.html There is another tool, as I recall, that is from Brazil called Agata Report, which is very much like Crystal Reports. Unfortunately the documentation is only in Portuguese at this point and I'm not sure that it directly supports Access DB files, but may thru ODBC shims. The screen shots show it to be quite mature and powerful, but as I indicated there is no English documentation. >> http://www.agata.org.br/ stan r. _______________________________________________ CWE-LUG mailing list [email protected] http://www.cwelug.org/ http://www.cwelug.org/archives/ http://www.cwelug.org/mailinglist/
