Re: [discuss] 3D/4D with Base, or is there something else?

In the late 80's there was a spreadsheet called CubeCalc or QubeCalc which 
did this in three dimensions.  Really, you could display this kind of 
thing by transposing rows vs columns within the same sheet or across 
multiple sheets for n-dimensions.  It would be an interesting feature to 
have for displaying relational databases in Calc.

What you are describing is not complex and is quite common.  Relational 
databases are inherently n-dimensional with each table adding a dimension.

Landon Blake gave a presentation on the basics of the OpenOffice.org 
Database features using MySQL.  You can listen to his presentation which 
daniel has been kind enough to post. (Use the MP3s, the Oggs are damaged)
