Hello, I wonder if you can help me. I have today downloaded and installed OpenOffice.org onto my u3 enabled flash drive. My objective is to be able to save my MS Access database onto the flash drive from my desktop pc and work with it on my laptop which doesn't have MS Access installed on it.
I have been able to open the database in OpenOffice but I cannot edit / overwrite or add new information to it. The Filter buttons are active, as are the A-Z sort facilities but all other editing buttons are greyed out. I can select data fields but cannot type into them. There are, of course, a few cosmetic differences between the OpenOffice interface and MS Access but I'm not too bothered by that. What I would like to be able to do is the following: 1 Edit and save work on the database 2 Enable the email address and website url hyperlinks in the database 3 Export the updated data back to Access in order to overwrite and update the database when it returns to the hard drive on my desktop pc. Is this something you can help with? Many thanks in anticipation.
