I'm new to LO base (I'm using the default HSQLDB), and having a pretty
good time with it so far, but have run into something I don't
understand, and cannot find documentation about.
I have a form with a main db displayed in a grid control. Linked to it
is a detail db displayed in a subform.
Sorry to have forgotten this: I'm running LO 3.3.2 on Kubuntu Linux

Am deeply puzzled by this one:
I have a master-slave form. The master db is shown in a grid control.
I just added several fields to the table which supplied data to the grid
control, then relaunched the form. No changes are visible. Where are the
new table fields? The appear in several views

I copied and pasted the quantities in text from an article.
In the end it was quicker to print it out and just type them in, but I
thought using CT2N would guarantee the accuracy.
Do you think there would be much demand for such a function?

I only have the one printer in Snow Leopard, but I think you problem lies
with System X rather than LibreO.
Way back I changed printers and I had to remove the old printer before the
new printer became the real Default.
That was in the days of Panther though.

Second thoughts.
Are you using the Apple Printer Driver, or the one supplied by the printer
Manufacturer?
My preference is for the Apple drivers, especially with Epson printers.
