Database editor?

[Olivier Dagenais]

Thanks for your answers, everybody...

I was hoping to avoid writing ANY code to use this theoretical editor that
would access Python DB-API compliant databases...  I'm currently in the
process of tweaking a little VB database app I wrote to be a little more
generic and do what I want it to do, but that means I'll also need to write
an ADO/Access -> Gadfly converter...

I searched Google for "StarOffice windows" and got
 http://www-ccar.colorado.edu/support/download/Windows/StarOffice/ ] which
seems to be the best result of the search...  Now maybe I can install and
learn to use StarOffice in half an hour and get it to do what I want it to??
: )
