I am reviewing "Introducing Base". Somehow the section briefly describing how Base and the other components work together, so I am having to add material here. I still hope to have this done in the next couple of days. Using F4 or View > Data Sources in Writer, we have access to all our registered data sources. This permits us to do mail merges for one thing. Data in table form can be copied into a text document in Writer. Tables in Writer can be use to create a new table in a data source, we choose whether this new table in the data source does or does contain data from the Writer table, or we can append data from the Writer table into an existing table in the data source. (I'm not sure how clear this is to anyone.)

Here is my question: I know that Mail Merge is a chapter in Writer. But where should the instructions be for the other uses of Base and Writer together? Writer Guide, or Base Guide?
