I want to get external data held in a remote MySQL database and have it populate an OO Calc sheet.

I imagine it would involve MYODBC which I have emerged.

Does anyone have any good documentation / links?

Cheers.

do a search for OpenOffice Mysql on google
from what I found in portage, it seems I need to :
emerge unixODBC
emerge myodbc

check out this guide :
