I'm guessing that openoffice can do full UTF8, or at least the BMP (the main group of characters).
Maybe the easiest thing is to allow full Unicode in your fields. Then convert that to UTF8 and back for the db. I think folks can help with that. Embrace Unicode. An alternative is to tell the db what character set you are using and the same with openoffice.
