Hello Stephan,

Hello.

I'm a recent move from MS to OpenOffice. Everything is cool, but I do need to do some database work, and my old access databases don't port directly (especially because they are still in Access 95). I'm not a database expert, and put them together with the help of careful reading of the documentation and help from tutorials. Now I need to port them, and I am having a hard time finding how to write analogous code in OpenOffice base, and how to think about doing the re-design.

I have found many books (which I have not needed) on how to use or migrate to OpenOffice Writer and Calc. However, I need a fairly comprehensive book and/or tutorial on the ins and outs of the OpenOffice Base.

did you read the Wiki pages, for example
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/MSA-Base_Faq

I'm a bit old-fashioned in the sense that a bound book is something I actually like,

Me too :-)
"Stephan" sound like German, are you/do you read German? In the famous on-line bookstore (in order not to mention trademarks: the one that starts with "A", like the tropical forest from Brasil - but not ending with .com but .de) you can type "openoffice.org base" and find Thomas Krumbein, u.a.

General problem with free-software related books is that things change vertiginously, an a printed edition gets old pretty soon.

Regards
Ariel.
