Importing OpenOffice Data into SPSS

[Luca Meyer-3]

Hi,

Is there someone importing directly into SPSS OpenOffice Base (*.odb)? If so
how do you do that? I have been searching for an ODBC driver but I could not
find it...

Thanks,

What happens if you use the Access ODBC driver? OpenOffice is supposed to be
compatible with Microsoft Office in file formats.

Unfortunately it gives me an error "SQLDriverConnect Failed". That is probably because the driver accounts for file with the extension *.mdb while the files OpenOffice are *.odb. Any other suggestion?
