[Chugalug] Viewing MS Access "Program" in Open Office

[John Aldrich]

One of my users has VPN access and occasionally needs to work from home. We
have an Access database that we use for tracking custom carpet requests with
a nice front end. Only problem is that the user in question does not have
Access at home, and since it's not a company computer, we can't buy her a
copy of Access.

I tried opening it in Open Office, but it doesn't give me the nice GUI
"front-end" that Access does. Is there any way to get the nice GUI front-end
that we see in Access when opening an Access database in OOO?

Thanks,
