MS-Access type program?

Hi all,

Is there a good MS-Access type program out there? I'm working on a spreadsheet in OpenOffice at the moment and would appreciate the different functions I'm missing - drop-down boxes, tick-boxes, relationships, etc.

Thanks!

Take care,

Jason

 

OpenOffice has a DBMS component - openoffice.org-base. I think it'll do forms (not sure; haven't really used it)

 

Or LibreOffice It's the same group people who developed OpenOffice after Sun bought OpenOffice. You can open or save .xls using one of them without any problem.

 

I have to agree with bendjo. Libre Office wasn't an option back in November.

 

LibreOffice Base is a good call.

I feel the need to be pedantic about the origins of LibreOffice...

OpenOffice.org (to give it it's full legal title) started off as an open source version of StarOffice, source code supplied by Sun.
The company which originally wrote it - StarDivision - had been bought by Sun as then they could produce their own branded Office suite that would run on Sun Solaris OS workstations.

Sun was bought by Oracle, and a dispute occured over OpenOffice.org . Many of the disgruntled developers left the OpenOffice.org project (as they had seen what had happened to OpenSolaris under Oracle's stewardship) and started a new fork which became known as LibreOffice (as in FreeOffice).
