Re: Open Office 2.0

Here's a screenshot I took from "base", the openoffice equivalent of MS access, with a form edit window open...

Unfortunately it cannot open MS access files directly!

Re: Open Office 2.0

This is a shot of "Impress"  the openoffice equivalent of PowerPoint.
And it is impressive! This file was originally done in powerpoint, and it looks exactly the same! And you can edit the graphs and everything, even with the same menus and wizards. BTW the chart you see is an embedded excel object, which means that the openoffice equivalent of excel also works well.

Guys this is almost like a free MS office. No doubt a lot of companies will switch.
