OOorg, MySQL and Forms

Does anybody in this Great Britain of ours understand how to use OOorg to enter and edit info. in a MySQL database using OOorg Forms? Can anyone point me to some good limks about Forms and scripting? I've studied John McCreesh and Joe Barr articles, and Googled my heart out, yet nothing is quite doing it for me. Does anybody have a young OOorg database wizard in school, itching to get their hands on a real-life project? Thanks, John Ingleby ************
