Hi Mechtilde, Frank,

yes, of course, but those data change frequently and I don't like too much to have more than one instance of the same database, in different formats. Perhaps is it worth a request for an enhancement? Do you think that such a proposal would be interesting for many users?

Keep your data with some preselecting queries and views in the database and use the spreadsheet for scenarios, complex calculations, pretty presentation and aggregation (for instance data pilots) of imported data. This way you get the best from both components, while keeping the data in one place. Calc-Menu:Data>Refresh refreshes the sheet's data. A nice input form can prevent some typos, duplicates and inconsistancies. No spreadsheet is supposed to do that. A "real" database provides consistant storage with multi-user access from any frontend (OOo-form, web-form, other tools).
