            Bug ID: 72787
          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: Feature enhancement: Calculated fields and pull-down
                    data list in Base's table fields
          Severity: enhancement
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.1.3.2 release
         Component: Database
           Product: LibreOffice

Problem description: 
In Access is very well know you have an expressions builder, and you can create
calculated fields without having to use queries or reports or forms.
Sometimes this is cool, becasue some users don't need the complexity of queries
or forms to get calculated fields, sometimes, users just want a table, in which
they can introduce data, and get the calculation automatically
Sadly, this feature never is included, and I think it is interesting to file an
enhancement for Base.
I asked in the LibreOffice forum if Base had calculated fields, I got as reply
it doesn't and an administrator there, David, suggested me to file the
enhancement here.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Creating a table
2. You cannot build expressions to calculate fields


Current behavior:
Do not allow to create expressions to get calculated fields

Expected behavior:
Allow the creation of an expressions builder, to get calculated fields in
tables

PLEASE, WATCH THIS VIDEO, IN WICH THIS FEATURE IS DOCUMENTED FOR ACCESS. The
expected behaviour would be the same for Base.
