I downloaded OOo 2.0 release candidate today. Base crashed four times
when I tried to create a report in a simple database created from an
Excel file. I sent an error report to Sun after the first and fourth
crash. I was able to create a grouped report one time, but each time the
grouped field changed the report started a new page. I didn't see
anything in the wizard to allow me to fill up a page before going on to
the next grouped field.
In addition it is extremely difficult to edit a report. I could change
the column width but that's about it. I couldn't find a way to search
for a manual page break and remove it to get the report the way I wanted
it. Help file is sparse here.
I was able to create a query but the query results did not carry over
the formatting from my table. I formatted one column as currency in my
table but it shows up as just a number in the query results. Is this by
design?
Base appears to be somewhat more stable than earlier releases but it
looks like there's quite a bit of work still ahead.
