Hi :)
It's just a just for fun survey of what people think they use.
The modules can't be split up and removing any wouldn't reduce the
code=base by much at all so the usual sinister hidden-agendas behind this
sort of question are entirely absent. It's just for fun.

Tom,
Good morning.
I bothered to comment at all about this for a three reasons.
First, I have a long standing serious interest inductive logic - as you
know, this is the logic upon which all scientific endeavor depends. Not
a fun topic for me, but a vitally serious and important one.
Yes, Tom D., this was just for fun, and given the response from so many
people, I think most have taken it in the way I intended.

Useless or not :-)
Going by the number of files used,
Calc = 90%
Writer = 9%
Base = 1%
And yet, I consider that one base file the most important.
I also have a few files that I work with in Corel. When I have time, I
will switch them over to Draw, but for now I have other things to do.
I have
Thank you!!!
That helped and I was finally able to get it right.

that is prohibited by the netiquette / and attachments are stripped
automatically; maybe next time)

Hi :)
Actually a mainstream press article might lead with a heading such as
Which module is best and then make dumb remarks such as Writer doesn't
handle pivot tables quite so well as Calc so therefore Calc is the best.
Such an article would carefully avoid pointing out that each module is the

I have a vendor who allows me to download a spreadsheet of my monthly
invoice. If she downloads it to herself, in the CSV format, she gets 1
field per column in Excel. If I download the sheet in the CSV format, I
get all of the fields in 1 column. See headings below from libreoffice.

HSQL, but rather, for the last 3 years, I have been using H2SQL, which is
