Hello, does anyone know how I would go about getting R to connect to OpenOffice's Base program (OOo's version of MS Access) such that I can retrieve data from the database and perform calculations and data analysis?  I'm totally new to R and Base and I've looked at some documentation, but found only examples for R connecting to PostgreSQL and MySQL, but nothing for OOo's Base (there wasn't any examples for MS Access either even though it says that R can connect to MS Access).  Is R even capable of this or am I just out of luck to use R and OOo's Base together?  Thanks in advance.
