Hello Rob,
..... The chapter was reviewed by Dan and Jean. So there is very less
chance of error.
I'm a bit disappointed on ignoring my improvements of the text and
suggestion to have a better look at database-related text...

Hi,
I'm a bit worried of the quality of the Base Guide. Due to the
speed of translating the Base Guide I am afraid that the quality
of the guide is less than normal.
For example at the top on page 14 of "Introduction to Base (6.2)"
chapter it says "The field names forename (first name), surname
(last name), and birthday are likely to be clear. In addition, a
field called ID was added. This field will later take a value
which is unique for each record. A unique key field is necessary
for the embedded database. Otherwise, no records can be entered in
the table. This key field is called the /primary key/ in databases."
The sentence "A unique key field is necessary for the embedded
database" is imho not correct. a table has an unique key (primary
key), not databases. Also the primary key is used on tables in all
sorts of databases. It is not only valid for Embedded databases.
I recommend to check the (technical) details in the manual in
order to provide correct info.
another thing what we have seen in de manual while translating it
into the Dutch language is the usage of numbered captions for
images in the manual.
In "Introduction to Base (6.2)" chapter and only the first 10
images are having numbered captions and after that it stops... why
is this?
Going thru the text It was sometimes not clear which text is
related to an image....
Seen this also in the "Creating a Database" chapter.
I promissed to redo the screenshots, Is it OK to do them in
Ubuntu? I hope I can keep up the pace....
Also the Index of the chapters has to be updated....
