It's been a long time since I used dBase (III, III+, and IV) (on dos and
Windows), but, don't you need the dBase engine in addition to whatever
"data" Open/StarOffice puts out, to make use of the data in that format? 

Do you make use of the data in dBase format?  With or without a dBase
engine?  Maybe MySQL or Postgres can handle dBase "format" data as an
option?
