If you use Windows, you will be able to open the file with OOo, but not edit it. If you need to edit it, and it is in either Access97 or Access2k format, then there is a free program that will edit/display the files --- Text2DAO. http://www.houseofmyrrh.com/text2dao.htm. [This was written by a geek, for geeks. ] [Note: it has a couple of quirks, one of which it crashes if a database contains nulls.] xan jonathon -- OOo can not correct for incompetence in creating documents from MSO. Furthermore,OOo can not compensate for the defective and flawed security measures used by Microsoft. As such, before using this product for exams that require faulty and defective software, ensure that you will not be unjustly penalized for the incompetence of the organization that requires the use of software that is known to be flawed, defective, bug-ridden, and fails to meet ISO file format standards. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
