I am going to create a databse which I need to upload to MySQL database. I understand I can do this with Microsoft Access and wondered if I can do this with Open Office as Access costs over £300.
Please can someone advise if this is possible and the best way to approach this.
Thank you.

Don’t think about “uploading the database” – all you have to do is to upload the data stored in your database. Therefore just use one of the common database export / import file formats like csv / tab-sep. text etc. and import this into your MySQL database. For this purpose you don’t need MS Access; it can be done easily with the OOP database, too.
Btw: An MDB file created by Access cannot simply be transferred in a MySQL db, you will have to convert the data in any case to a common database readable file format like described above.
does openoffice create an MDB file like access does? If so there are plenty of MDB to mysql translation programs (or scripts) out there.
