>> My befuddled memory indicates that %VALUE% is the contents of the
query/table box that you have selected. <<

That would make sense, yes.

 >> My very clear memories of the handbook is that it is annoyingly 
complete and comprehensive.  On the odd occasion that I queried it with 
Hans Knoda it was all due to my dyslexia.  After being admonished more 
than once I began to realise how complete it is and how it says so much 
with so few words. <<

I think that indicates it was written by an engineer for people who are 
similar minded! This is not always the best style for newbs and less 
experienced software people. :~)

 >> Like most other people on this list I am looking for an alternative
programme.  I like the ability to add pictures to your forms and the
whole concept of generating forms on a clean sheet of paper without any
'factory made' boxes.
Whilst Access may be functional it is inhuman, Open Office Base needs
code before it will do all of the tricks that Knoda will do. <<

I tried kexi as well as OO Base and found them poor compared to knoda 
which was *relatively* easy to pick up. (OO Base is abysmal.) I wouldn't 
use anything Microsoft wrote even if you paid me. ;~)

I am lead to believe kexi has really improved. the last time I looked, 
there was nothing in my KDE4 repository, and it was still very much in 
beta which is why I knocked up my own system. It's a lot easier to do a 
custom one than a generic version it would seem!

BTW, I wrote:

"Right click on the section and then on the ... button to the right
of the datasources combo."

I did, of course, mean left click. Sorry about that.
