She posted a question that, as sometimes happens with difficult/non clear topics, at the beginning did not get any answer: that's all... But when answers came they were not well received either (suggestions, like posting on the EN forums too, were not followed because the user was not "intellectually interested on the topic" or something like that), some strange theory that there was an universal agreement to not provide answers to the problem was uttered (and repeated many times) and after a suggestion of reading the forum rules... well, the thread is now closed and the user vowed to leave the forum http://forum.openoffice.org/es/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=7912 Obviously, there was a communication problem... but I do not think it was from our part.

Re: Problem with the API forum
Could you make clear about what forum you're talking about? I checked the EN forum and there is no user with your mail address (I checked with the address used for the dev list but also your first name and last name alone).

If a message is not allowed through, I believe that you are told along with a message from the moderator as to why it was not let through.

I think the word mofifiied was used in error for moderated. I am not involved with the API forum but my knowledge of the en-Forum is this (and I would not expect the API forum to be much different): the initial posts are "moderated", that is, inspected to be sure that they are not "spam", carrying advertising, or trivial posts consisting of pointless "noise". Unfortunately this has become necessary for initial posters to many newsgroups, mailing lists and forums, to help reduce the nuisance ostings and try to keep the list relevant to its purpose. A user's posts are in general not modified; a group moderator might correct a spelling error (typos can happen to the best of us!) or change a mistranslated term to the correct one, but only to clarify the sense, in the intention to be helpful. Once a user has had a posting approved his postings are displayed immediately. This process is sufficient to reduce the level of spam and noise postings significantly. I hope that explanation sets your mind at rest, Yessica. > > 2013/2/7 Alexandro Colorado > > > On 2/7/13, Yessica Brinkmann wrote: > > > Hello, > > > Excuse me please write back by forum inadequate.

Re: Problem with the API forum
I understand, thank you very much. I really do not like the idea that my posts are "modified" by others, and that could mean, for example, something I did not say. Actually I did not receive any notification about this. Also I think if my messages are not understood, that I should be notified, for education and respect, asking for more information, and not simply be ignored. I understand that these are policies of the forum, but just saying that I disagree with them. However, for personal reasons, I will unsubscribe for the forum.

I guess you need a little patience, we all are contributors, may be busy working on other stuff, etc. (for example, I saw your mails on the API mailing list, but didn't have time to take a look at the problems). Besides, Basic + Base is a complex topic, and it is rather hard to get an idea of the problem by only reading a description and a code snippet, it would be helpful for the reader if you can upload a copy of the whole ODB file with the forms, macros, tables, etc. For example, without seeing the whole ODB I could have never guessed the problem you had with fields not incrementing due to having NULL instead of a default value of 0.
