What is the reason you need to split your data into multiple tables? You will make life a lot easier for yourself if you are able to consolidate your data into one table. The rules of data 'normalization' (see link below) may require your data to be divided into more than a single table, but this

Hi :) Wow! At last some people using Calc more than Writer. Interesting to see neither seem to need or use Base at all. It kinda makes sense of the high quality answers we see about Calc though. Other posts in this thread showing a very low usage of Calc had me worried. I know it's possible

Hi: Someone asked me offline (or is that back channel?) to provide examples of what I meant by my comments regarding Impress. I think the implication was that these were unfair rants. So here are examples that come to mind: 1) I said Impress is a Work in Progress: this wasn't a slur, merely an

Hi :) Relational databases have been around for quite a long time now. When many records/rows contain the same data it helps if that data can be held separately so that only 1 instance is held with the many rows simply referencing that 1 instance. That 1 instance can then be edited or updated
