microsoft access equivalent in LO?
I have an extensive mailing list (~10,000 names) on Microsoft Access in Microsoft Office 2000 on an old PC running Windows XP. I used Access to MailMerge with Word. New computer, a Mac OSX 10.13.4, with LibreOffice. Is there in LibreOffice a program similar to Microsoft Access? If so, how to transfer the information from Access to the LibreOffice program? Can't seem to find this topic in the Document Foundation or FAQs. Thanks.
LibreOffice has the module Base for database usage. Use New > Database to start the wizard. In Windows the drop down "Connection" has an item "Microsoft Access". But the connectors are likely different between Windows and Mac, so I cannot help you further. As long as your old PC works, you should export from Microsoft Access to dBase, to csv and to xls. These formats can be imported in other applications in most cases.
And perhaps you can use the Access2Base library, which is includes in LibreOffice. http://www.access2base.com
