Hi Dan, > > I know that I got very discussed trying to make it work until the bug > was reported to me. I just do not want anyone else to have to go through > what I did without getting the results they expect. So give a hint for the buggy behavior. In the Handbuch there are tables called HINWEIS. I would prefer to write down the buggy behavior there. For example another buggy behavior, which appeared and disappeared in LO-Versions (and in AOO): Report-Builder could show charts, but there have been versions, where no charts could be shown. So I have written a special chapter for error sources in Report Builder. But the chapter for charts has been there the whole time.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] LibreOffice Base Guide 6.2
Hello Everybody, I have taken a look at the file BG6207 reviewed by Dan. When he wrote that he has rewritten the whole section of mailmerge due to the bug of salutation, then I thought that he meant about substitute of the mailmerge wizard or a different set of steps which does not include salutation. But he has not done so and has included a not to address that bug. I have no problem with that. Infact I also suggested this I think. I have moved the chapter to the drafts folder after accepting all the changes. Jean: Now, you can take both chapter 9 and 7 from drafts folder, review them, upload it to the published folder and compile the final book. I think you have downloaded the file of ch.7 from the feedback folder. Then, FYI I have not made any change in that file, I have just accepted all the changes. So, you can continue using that file for your review also. Pulkit Krishna On Fri, May 1, 2020 at 7:36 AM Pulkit Krishna wrote: > Hello Jean, > Sorry for arguing.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] LibreOffice Base Guide 6.2
I have taken this chapter (BG6209) to work on the formatting and check the English. I will also look at BG6207, which Dan has been discussing in another thread. I agree with Dan that the limitation on personalized salutations should be mentioned. When I have finished with both chapters and everyone has stopped arguing about them, shall I compile the book? P.S. Please note the correct spelling of my surname.

I would only give a hint: There is a buggy behavior at this moment, but could be it is working with the version you use... Regards Robert My problem with this bug is that it has been in existence since 2018, perhaps 2017. It does not work for 6.2.6.1, 6.2.8.2, 6.3.6.2, nor for 6.4.3.2. At least not for the Debian versions. So, possibly it does not work with Debian versions even for the 5.x.x. It does not work for MacOS according to Jean. The thing is that the Mail Merge wizard works fine when a person does not select a personal salutation. (Again, I have verified this with several of the versions I mentioned, trying several times in successions.) At the very least, mention should be made of what versions of LO are affected as well as giving a simple solution for those who like myself use a version that are affected. I know that I got very discussed trying to make it work until the bug was reported to me. I just do not want anyone else to have to go through what I did without getting the results they expect.

Re: [libreoffice-documentation] LibreOffice Base Guide
Hi Pulkit, I have just uploaded a new section about Access2Base in a file named BG6209-Macros_JPL_20200430.odt (Draft directory of the 6.2 Base Handbook). It would probably benefit from a rapid review by a native english writer. I started from the updates made by AHR (Alain Romedenne). I never used before the template and the proposed styles. So, adapting them to whatever is newer (Jean Webber ?) should improve the result. Regards.
