I was under the impression that OpenOffice now provides a database application. Am I incorrect? Or is this app just not provided with Fedora? Or can I just not find it.
The 2.0 beta version of OOo -- 1.9.x, actually -- includes a database component, but the current stable version, 1.1.4, does not. As far as I know, the most current FC build of OOo is 1.1.3.
You can download the 2.0 beta from OOo and play with it. I installed it with no problems (it comes as several .rpm files zipped up into one big archive), and I really like it. I'm looking forward to the final build.
A database compontent is an essential part of some high school comsci sylabuses.
