Summary

Connecting OpenOffice.org to a remotely hosted MySQL databse is not very different from connecting to one locally and a relatively simple task once the three major pieces (OpenOffice.org, the MySQL ODBC driver and a remote MySQL database) are in place. Once connected, standard SQL queries can be run to extract data from the remote database using an SQL "query builder" tool similar to that in MS Access or from straight SQL commands. Also, the remote database can be administered to a certain extent from within this interface.
