Though no doubt well meant, I think this and other replies may have
missed the point. As I read the original query, the questioner has
OpenOffice installed but not Access. S/he also has some third-party
software that expects its data in the form of an Access database file.
That software is presumably unable to deal with an .odb file. He needs
to export material from OpenOffice Base as an .mdb file without the use
of Access itself.
I don't believe this to be possible. But someone may know better ...
Yea, I missed that Brian.
Nevertheless, it poses an interesting challenge. I believe BASE does ADO
and ODBC so I imagine there would be a way if BASE can link to two
different databases simultaneously.
If the user needs to create a new access db and BASE cannot do that,
there are some utilities out there that will do it.
