EXCERPT:
With the database tools in OpenOffice.org users can easily access and
analyze data, create complex reports or do a mail merge based on a customer
database. Many open source and commercial database systems are supported

Database:
*Table control via keyboard navigation in table designer. 
*Added ability to switch off brackets for bibliography fields. 
*New database type in data source administration dialog - MySQL. 
*Ability to add labels to field names in the report wizard. 
*A data source can now use any character set known to OpenOffice.org. 
*UI support for user installed database drivers. 
*Database Report Wizard 




MySQL Integration
OpenOffice.org now has support for MySQL databases, i.e. the open source
database can be used for mail merge activities and the creation of reports.
The combination of OpenOffice.org and MySQL (or another supported database)
allows users to do tasks that many people used to solve by using products
like Microsoft Access.
