Hi Ok

It can be left at version 2. However, the functionality that I'm looking for is
invaluable, and is 1 of the 2 reasons I still have to use MS, and not move
across to Linux full time.

Unfortunately, whereas OOCalc,Writer,Impress are very good, and sometimes better
that the equivalent MS office offerings, I still find Base to be noticably
lacking, even in comparison to MS Office 97.

If the functionality of OOBase can reach that of MS Access 97, I, and I imagine
many other will be better placed to replace MS Office with OpenOffice
completely, but until users can design queries, other that select, using the
same QBE as they can when designing a select query, it can't fully replace MS
Access.

I'm really sorry, because I am really trying to get the company I work for to
switch to OO, but the Access equivalanet(BASE) is a hinderance.

The functionality may appear trivial to a skilled SQL developer, but is too much
of a drain on your everday user, especially when they counteract any argument
with, well I can create my update query almost instantly in Access, with little
or no typing.

Regards
