I want to edit it with OpenOffice dynamically and there is no information anywhere that I have found relating to the subject. I have mailed the GRAMPS list to get further info
*.grdb
*.xml
*.gedcom
In 'connect to existing database' none of the options seem to connect to any of these formats.
Extension needed? Surely OpenOffice can connect to an XML database?? ODB is XML.
.grdb is presumably a GRAMPS custom database. It may be that like Legacy it
is an Access database to which the have simply changed the extension (as Legacy
does). With the Legacy .fdb file It can be opened in OOo by simply changing the
extension to .mdb and importing as an Access file. Might be worth a try.
.grdb is a GRAMPS custom database. Not really an Access database (it's natively
a Linux application).
The extension trick can't work because it's a specific structure. XML doesn't
mean universal language !
Why opening a Gramps database in OOo ? The links between all the data are
rather complex, I don't see what you'll gain.
