    Anyone know if there's a way to import an OpenOffice OOo ?
    Calc spreadsheet .ODS file into MS Access?

    Thanks, DaveBo

    There may be filters to import OpenOffice files, but I have no idea where you would find them (if they exist!).

    The best thing to do is export the file from OpenOffice to a format that Access will understand - such as .CSV
