In either the AOo or LibO template repository are: * A recipe database; * An inventory system; > and may give me reason to reconsider using a DBM rather than a spreadsheet > tool in some instances. Databases tend to be far less destructive of data than spreadsheets are. ##### On a personal level, I much prefer SQLite as a database engine. jonathon --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
