Hello Open Office Team:
All of your programs can be saved in such a way like
Microsoft Office does.
Except the program "Base" (database) which can not be saved like Microsoft
Access do.
This subject is very important to me because I work usually with Open Office at
home,
And at work I use Microsoft Access.
When will you enable this option?
OpenOffice will not ( in the near future ) support opening Access MDB
files like you want. You can connect to an MDB file via ODBC and query,
edit data etc, but you can't open / edit forms, reports etc. I would be
surprised if this feature was *ever* available. If you want to be able
to use open-source tools to use / edit a GUI to a database, don't use MS
Access. Use OpenOffice 2's "base" app or build your GUI with something
else. I use Perl-Gtk2, which works on Windows and Linux ( and OS X I
believe, but I haven't been able to make it work on mine yet ).
