Hello,
I have MICROSOFT Office XP Pro and use a lot of databases (self)made with
ACCESS.
Because I want to use some of these programs/files on another computer I
have installed Open- and LibreOffice.
It seems that with both systems I can open an Access-file but:
- in the navigationbar of "Tables":
-- the original tables are present
-- the original query's are present
- the navigationbars "Query's" and "Forms" and "Reports" are empty
I cannot find a way to have the forms/reports in this.
The original Access-file also is setup to open this with a particular form
so this also will not function.
Do I have missed something?
Thanks
I don't think you've missed anything, there is nothing for Access/Base that corresponds to the
Word/Writer, Excel/Calc, and PowerPoint/Impress interoperability. The underlying models are quite
different between the two. In general, you have to recreate forms and reports after making the data
tables accessible (generally through a connection, or by copying them into Base's internal HSQLDB
database). Here's a link to some more information:
