Hi all! I have come to a brick wall on how to get something accomplished.

I have a program that was written in C# VS2003. What this program does is strip information from a text file, dumps it into an MS Access DB, asnd then a word template imports the data.

I am now trying to do the same thing with OO Writer, ut have hit a brick wall.

Is there a way to write to an OO odb with a VS C# program? If so, how?

If not, is there a way to convert the mdb to an odb on the fly via command line?

Thanx in advance!

OK..I got the open office writer to recognize the data table by using New-->Labels. I also matched the fields to where I want them.

I have a picture attached at what I am looking at right now. I have tried mail merge, but that only does documents, not labels.
