I have a program that writes data to an access file then imports that data to a Word template as a data source. All of this is automated once the user clicks a button. All the coding is in c# using VS2003.

I have ran into a problem trying to port this over to Open Office Writer. OO will not accept the mdb as a datasource. I can manually convert it to OO's odb, but that is not what the end result needs to be.

Is it possible to write to an odb from a VS program? If so, how? (connection string)

Thanx in advance!
