Hi :)
Yes, hopefully Alex Thurgood and someone.  Base is in a bit of a mess.  Even if 
various sources and training guides are consolidated then the documentation is 
still likely to be very sparse compared to the other guides.  But people seem 
to 
shy away from relational databases or have put so much work into the one they 
have that switching to a different one is much more difficult.  


By contrast a lot of people seem to be trying Impress and asking questions 
about 
it.  So, Base is less urgent imo and probably needs people that have a lot of 
experience with it to try getting something together for it first.  


Regards from
Tom :)
