The Sun
Report Builder adds a powerful database report editor to
StarOffice Base. The Sun Report Builder is similar to a form designer,
with visual tools that allow you to create reports by dragging and
dropping database fields. There are three different header and footer
types that provide you the flexibility you need to design smart and
professional looking reports. You can even build multi-column reports
with the Sun Report Builder. |

Send and
receive faxes from within the StarOffice office suite! eFax
is an online fax service that eliminates the need for a fax machine, an
extra fax line and all the associated expenses (paper, ink cartridges
etc.). You can continue to use your existing fax number or obtain a new
number for free. When someone faxes to your number, the fax is
displayed in the eFax Messenger solution if it's installed on your
computer or the fax is converted to a file and is emailed to you as an
attachment. The extension integrates eFax into StarOffice and gives you
a free 30-day trial. |

Weblog Publisher allows you to quickly create, edit and publish

entries on many popular Blog servers. It is easy to use so that any

of StarOffice Writer such as spellchecking, key formatting tools like
lists, tables, and pictures, and easy handling of hyperlinks to write
articles for your blog. Then you can send the entire Writer document or
just the current selection as a new entry to your blog. Everyone can
