No, there is not. Openoffice.org (OOo) is an integrated suite of
application. More than 75% of the files makes up the core for the
group. All applications use the core. You can do a modified install in
which only the core elements and the database are installed on the
client's PC. (Please remember that parts of the Base application
requires a Java install also.)
Remember also that you are free to install some or all parts of OOo
from a single CD.

OOo does not use Visual Basic at all. There are some differences
between VB and the formulas used in Base.

There are several places in South Africa from which you can get OOo
on a CD for a small price. The list is found in the South Africa
section of this web page:
