pulpfiction Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I guess OpenOffice.org Base is not a database,but a gui for databases... OpenOffice.org Base enables you to access a variety of databases. This ranges from some text or dBase files on your hard disc, over for instance MySQL and PostgreSQL up to e.g. Oracle and DB2. There's even more than this, since OpenOffice.org is capable of talking to any database which provides and ODBC, JDBC or (on Windows) an ADO driver.For all those database, OpenOffice.org offers you the usual data manipulation features: You can read and write data in various ways. Most simple, you can use table views. But you can also create your own queries, using the graphical query design. Additionally, you can create own form documents, using OpenOffice.org's powerful form designer.this is what the OpenOffice.org Base site says...Check out this site for connection stringshttp://www.connectionstrings.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
