@Gillian and @Des M:
It turns out that you CAN import Microsoft Access databases into OpenOffice Base. Here is the process for doing it:

The above process exports the Microsoft Access database to a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and then imports that into an OpenOffice Base database. I haven't tried it yet, but it does sound intriguing and easy.

Thanks to Stuart Berg and Gillian for their efforts regarding importing Access material into an OpenOffice Base file. Spent several fruitless hours on this task and then gave up. Have been with Access since version 1 and must be too conditioned to master conversion into another program The Solveig help file was well written but I still got into trouble (Small gripe. Excellent to read whilst on the screen but the printed article seemed to print out in a faded blue color. Very hard to read properly when eyesight is becoming a problem. Maybe that's why I got into trouble?). There was going to be another problem moving the new database to another PC anyway, so I simply abandoned the task!
