Rogerio,

To elaborate a bit on Jay's answer: I had put the first four chapters of
the draft OOo Base Guide on Alfresco (English Content  Documentation 
Base Guide  Drafts). I assume that's what Jay is referring to. 

However, I don't see any of those chapters checked out. The Base Guide
Outline is checked out, but as far as I can tell by someone else, not
Jay.

More info, which may be of interest to anyone working on the LibO Base
Guide: Dan Lewis, the primary author of the OOo Base Guide, is rewriting
chapter 1 of that book and expects to have his revision on the
ODFAuthors site soon.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Base Manual Design

Hi :)

Good plan.  MS Office (but Excel rather than Access) uses a spreadsheet called 
NorthWind occasionally they have a new folder (Exercise1, Exercise2 and so 
on) 
in case the person's progress has taken them off-track.  Or is that an ECDL 
course, i don't quite remember fully now.
Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-documentation] Base Manual Design

Hello

In reviewing the OOo base documents I have an idea to use a simple
tutorial to highlight database concepts. My idea is to make library
database to show various concepts of the database. 

The idea is to show users how a relational database works and how to
design one by using a simple one. 

Is the idea reasonable to everyone?

Hi :)

Could you upload it to Alfresco?  It is likely to be a good start even if there 
have been changes.  There is so little about Base that any help is good.  

Many thanks and regards from
Tom :)

I remember someone on this list asking about a Base manual. There is a
Getting Started with Base manual on OO.org. It is from 2009. I have a copy
on my computer. I'm not sure how out of date it is. Has Base changed that
much?

Is that the chapter from the Getting Started Guide? If so, we have
already rebranded it for LO and it's available through the wiki and the
website.

AFAIK, Base hasn't changed a lot. Possibly some new features in LO?

That's excellent news!

 OO does not
 have a current manual that I could find. I will base the manual on OO
 information I can find and any other information I can find.

There is an outline and 4 draft chapters of a Base Guide for OOo on
the ODFAuthors wwbste, which you may fond useful. If you don't have an
ODFAuthors account, I can send them to you or post them on Alfresco.

 I will post a draft outline next week for comments on Alfresco.

See above. Of course you don't have to follow the OOo guide outline.
