Re: [dba-users] Example database

[Andrew Jensen]

Still thinking about the example database it occured to me, why not look at what is here now. Dmitri Popov has put one, named Javket Potato, out. Find it at  http://www.nothickmanuals.info/doku.php Ninth Avenue Software is using OpenOffice 2 as a demo vehicle for their accounting package 'Gemstone', as announced on this list. That demo is available at http://www.ninthavenue.com.au. The folks at OOOAuthors.org have been working on developing a Base users manual. For this they have developed a schema and partial use case for an example database. The subject is a light library check-out / check-in system. :-)  Writers pick an example around books, go figure. Solveig Haugland has written a series of articles on using Base. The first article can be found at http://searchopensource.techtarget.com/tip/1,289483,sid39_gci1148271,00.html At OOOForum.org there is an example of a three table database for employee information. This simple beast is yours truly's contribution. There are two additional database Base applications that are ready for release ( but not quite available for download, yet  ), by the folks at e-easel.org. Both of these will be released into the public domain. Maybe something will spark an idea from these. Drew
