I didn't know that, thats what i thought Access was for :\
No, Access is for CORRUPTING your databases, silly! 8-)
Lol, still i didn't know that Excel did databases. Last time I used
MS Office was a few years ago before I found OpenOffice (on Windows
*ducks*) Before going to OO i was using Office 2000.
Excel will open individual Access tables, I'd have to dig through the
converters list to see if it'll open Appleworks database tables. OO
(presuming it's v 3 or higher) actually has a real SQL database module.

Actually a pretty cool little DBMS.
