Importing Access applications

Question

Hi, i've tried to import a Access application with Base, but it only imports the database. Can I import queries, forms, and the code? I believe it supports VB, and it would be nice if I could use my old Access apps in Base (that's the only thing that would make me use M$ Office again). For the rest, no further questions.

I recommend that you have a look at http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/MSA-Base_Faq which has a thorough discussion of what you can do and what you can't do. But the short version is no - e.g. you can use your queries but you can't edit them and forms and reports are inaccessible.
