Re: [libreoffice-users] Possible to write reports with relationship data?
Hi :) Have you tried doing Reports in Writer? Writer should be able to use the database as it's data-source and then you put the fields in the appropriate places with whatever formatting you like that Writer has.

All the report tutorials I've seen seem somewhat primitive, in terms of what kinds of structures can be printed. If I have a main entity, and I have two one-to-many relationships to other tables (FK links from the other tables to the main table), is there any way to generate a report with the main table data, and the data for the other relationships also included (indented and formatted properly)? -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@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 -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@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] Possible to write reports with relationship data?
No, I haven't gotten into that yet. I assume I can do some sort of looping construct in writer that will allow me to step through rows in both the main table and the relationships tables? Can I use Java or Javascript to do that iteration? On Wed, May 15, 2013 at 1:13 AM, Tom Davies tomdavie...@yahoo.co.uk wrote: Hi :) Have you tried doing Reports in Writer?
