Re: [libreoffice-users] Acess2Base

Thanks Jim for introducing this topic.

A small company I know is using an ACCESS DB with macros exporting certain information into EXCEL 
spreadsheets. This ACCESS DB is currently preventing the company to change over  from MSO to LibO 
and Linux.

A 2 step approach is discussed: First to migrate from MSO to LibO using W7 and second moving from 
Windows to Linux. (Distributions not yet decided but most likely Linux Mint of Linux Mint Debian or 
Antergos.)

Therefore, 1 more question from my side: Assuming that using Access2Base helps us to get the DB and 
the macros into Base and create the Calc spreadsheets, can this BASE DB with the LibO macros be used 
as they are when changing from W7 to Linux?
