Trying to access our MS Access DB from Ooo, following John McCreesh's
instructions listed below trying to create a data source in Ooo, I do not
see the 'New Data Source' button as indicated below. There was no problem in
setting up the MS Odbc recognition - only in Ooo. What do I do now? Thanks -
Jerry White.
9. Can I use Microsoft Access files within OpenOffice.org?
Yes. It's really easy, especially if you follow John McCreesh's step by step
illustrated guide, available either online or in pdf format (325k)
Creating a Data Source within OOo
>From within an OOo application, select Tools -> Data Sources... You will
notice that OOo comes with one pre-installed Data Source called
Bibliography. Ignore this, and press the New Data Source button

You might get some leads by looking up "data source" in the help index
that comes with OOo and reading the topics.
Best,
