Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Correct Syntax to address a table or form field in Base's Basic
Hi :) There are some guides and partial bits of guides at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications#LibreOffice_Base_Guide (scroll down a bit to see some of the 3rd party things). Mostly it seems that Andrew Pitonyak's guide is the best. Also the FAQ mentioned in the link is complete for Base but i'm not sure it will help all that much. Usually Andreas is one of the best answerers here but it seems like he was having a bad hair day as we all do from time-to-time. Sorry about that! Good luck and happy hunting! :( Regards from Tom :) --- On Wed, 18/7/12, Andrew Douglas Pitonyak and...@pitonyak.org wrote: From: Andrew Douglas Pitonyak and...@pitonyak.org Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Correct Syntax to address a table or form field in Base's Basic To: users@global.libreoffice.org Date: Wednesday, 18 July, 2012, 1:24 You may find some working examples in here: http://www.pitonyak.org/database/AndrewBase.odt On 07/17/2012 06:08 PM, Andreas Säger wrote: RTFM -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Correct-Syntax-to-address-a-table-or-form-field-in-Base-s-Basic-tp3996103p3996132.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Andrew Pitonyak My Macro Document: http://www.pitonyak.org/AndrewMacro.odt Info: http://www.pitonyak.org/oo.php -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: [3.5.3.2/Calc] Display drop-down list in all cells in column?
Hi :) One problem with using a spreadsheet or database is that it is difficult to set-up an audit trail and even if you do then it's unlikely to be trusted by anyone else that might need to see your accounts. That is the advantage with using proper software developed for the purpose or for using penink (ie so you can't rub-out entries without it being noticeable) to keep proper records. If you don't have an accountant or auditor or present the accounts to anyone else then of course a database might be a LOT better than a spreadsheet, if you are at all familiar with database programs.

And why isn't the bank statements in PDF files the audit trail? The numbers in those files can be compared with the numbers in the tables. The query structure will show whether the query will give the correct results or not. If the input numbers are correct, and the operations performed on those numbers are correct; it seems logical to assume that the output would also be correct. When in doubt, the query structure can also be checked by feeding it data with known calculations. If the query output on this data matches the known calculations, I would think the query can be trusted to give the correct result on other data as long as that data can be verified first. --Dan Tom Davies wrote: Hi :) One problem with using a spreadsheet or database is that it is difficult to set-up an audit trail and even if you do then it's unlikely to be trusted by anyone else that might need to see your accounts.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Libreoffice GNOME 3 Compatibility
There was a thread about problems with the desktop environment and LO with the darker desktop themes, I think. --- My question is why are you using GNOME 3 shell for 12.04? From my readings of articles about the current GNOME 3 shell, it is still not fully functional, or at least the last article[s] seem to state. I have no problem with LO using 12.04 and MATE for the desktop substitution instead of GNOME 3 shell. I wanted my desktop to look as much like the GNOME desktop that 10.04 has, so I went with MATE and it works great. That is why I went with MATE for Ubuntu 12.04 on my laptop that was updated from 10.04 to 12.04 and the added MATE to get it working like I needed. I run LO 3.5.4 on all my Ubuntu and Windows systems at this point.

[libreoffice-users] SQL statement in Base query
The FROM clause is where I am having errors returned. The outline that I am using for this clause is: FROM Table name [{CROSS | INNER | LEFT OUTER | RIGHT OUTER} JOIN Table name ON Expression] [, ...] I have two tables with a child parent relationship: Persons.P_ID = Orders.P_ID These queries run without errors: (INNER JOIN has no fields with a NULL value; LEFT OUTER JOIN has NULL values in the OrderNo field; RIGHT OUTER JOIN has NULL values for the two fields in the Persons fields.) SELECT Persons.Last, Persons.First, Orders.OrderNo FROM Persons INNER JOIN Orders ON Persons.P_ID = Orders.P_ID SELECT Persons.Last, Persons.First, Orders.OrderNo FROM Persons LEFT OUTER JOIN Orders ON Persons.P_ID = Orders.P_ID SELECT Persons.Last, Persons.First, Orders.OrderNo FROM Persons RIGHT OUTER JOIN Orders ON Persons.P_ID = Orders.P_ID But the following SQL creates an error when the following is run: SELECT Persons.Last, Persons.First, Orders.OrderNo FROM Persons CROSS JOIN Orders ON Persons.P_ID = Orders.P_ID The error message: The data can not be loaded. Column not found: P_ID in statement ... I know that this outline will create a CROSS JOIN for any pair of tables: SELECT table1 name.field name, table2 name.field name, ... FROM table1 name, table2 name So, it seems that this is one place where we should ignore the manual (HSQLDB user guide 1.8). It may be that this has been corrected in the 2.2.8 user guide.

[libreoffice-users] query re. fonts ...
... Is it possible or not to keep one font as default? in using Impress, each time I add text, I have to re-add the font, et.al. Is there some way to make the font the default for each particular file? ... I use differing fonts with each file, but only one per file. Has .5 taken care of this? - if so, I'll upgrade now.

I'm new to Libre Office. I'm wondering if there's a way to duplicate/replace attributes from one paragraph to another in so that they are formatted identically. A frequent problem for me (typically when I copy paste from elsewhere) is that two sentences/paragraphs just won't line up properly (perhaps even in a numbered list), I assume due to various formatting reasons including different fonts, sizes, tabs, margins, alignment, and/or anything else that might affect placement and display on the page. They seem to be the same in the original source as far as I can tell, but once copied and pasted to a document in Libre some of the paragraphs seem to get out of wack. Trying to apply the exact same attributes to the paragraph or sentence that's out of wack just doesn't seem to work - probably because I don't know what attributes have been applied and/or simply don't know how to get the same effect in a consistent way. Perhaps there is an attribute tree mode so that I can see what set of attributes has been applied? Either just plain text or perhaps through a graphical representation maybe? I guess I don't need to see it if I can simply apply from one to another - sort of like the eye dropper from a paint program copies the color from one spot so you can apply the same color to another spot only here instead of color, it would be text placement display attributes.

Sometimes a 'button' has a couple of different links that do slightly different things. It would be awkward to have a 3way button that had 1. Normal download when you click the top half 2. Torrent download when click the bottom half and 3. Information when you click the right-hand-side Putting all 3 together in a fake button means people usually wave their mouse around and click on something and then work it out. It's a good idea to keep the installer file (assuming you are on Windows) for the version you are familiar with so that if you don't like the upgrade then you can return to the familiar very easily. It's much less of an issue by around .3, .4 and onwards because things have settled down a lot by around then. It's more an issue when tons of new features have just been added, such as with the .0 releases. That 3rd digit is a bit like a Service Pack (like Xp Sp3 or Win7 Sp1).

I seriously doubt that nabble doesn't follow threading and doesn't insert quotes in replies. I don't use nabble (I use gmane.org nntp), but perhaps you can RTFM find additional support for nabble here: http://www.nabble.com/help/Index.jtp http://support.nabble.com/ In any event, you should try to resolve the problem. You've been 'kindly' asked in the past to do so. This is from nabble. Does quoting work? And does the msg stay in the original thread (Correct Syntax to address a table or form field in Base's Basic)? ... Why yes... it certainly does. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
