Hi,

Didn't make the meeting on Wed for several reasons, including being unwell,
on top of that having too much work to do and then I wanted to catch some of

I think the Sun StarOffice comes with some kind of database program, but
it's missing from OpenOffice.Org.

I'm sure somebody will write one some day.  ;-)
