Isn't the database app for staroffice is called 'adabas'? Don't know if
it works with access files though. It won't be available again (afaik)
until the final version of 6.0 is out. I missed my chance to download
it when the beta was available..

There is also 'HancomEasyDB' from HancomLinux (www.hancom.com) they have
a 15 day trial you can download. Not sure if it works with access files
though, their website doesn't particularly say. I played with the word
processing and spreadsheet stuff a little, and it looked pretty
promising as an office suite, although a bit rough around the edges still..
