>>  I tried this ... button after point-and-click in the data section. 
Something went wrong, I got no field box in there, but in the section 
before. <<

Not quite sure what you mean. If you click in data section background, 
then on the ... button, you can choose a query then click the add add 
button.

When you place a "new field" in the data section, you can assign one of 
the results from the sql query to that new field by clicking on the new 
field and selecting something from the column combo.

Any new app this complicated has its learning curve, give it a chance. :~)

 >> Also, I have not figured out yet how to get the report processing 
all my records without some form of programming/scripting. I have no 
experience from using this type of software. Though Knoda is a clever 
bit of software, it seems not to be designed for the end user needing a 
way of presenting av report from her/his data in a reasonable easy way. <<

Yes, I never managed to do it without writing a sql query. I do think 
the reports are hard to figure on knoda.

 >> Another problem is that Knoda has no backup facility. I resorted to 
mysqldump, and got an empty .sql file. As usual: dirt in dirt out, no 
error message. Knoda had placed my database etc. in directory hk-classes 
under my home directory. So to move the database to another PC I 
hopefully get everything I need by copying the hk-classes directory with 
subdirectories on to an usb stick to install on the other PC. That 
should not be the way of doing it I think. <<

The databases for me were automatically stored in the /var/lib/mysql 
directory, so not sure what's gone on there. I connect to a remote 
machine via port 3306.

Cheers,

Rob
