Years ago when OO BAse first came out I did a piece about it. I took my wife's gardening club spreadsheet (Excel) opened it in OO Calc, exported as .csv. Imported into Base, set up forms etc. I know SFA about databases but I made it work OK. Wife then went back to Excel for all the usual reasons: She knows it She uses it at work When she stopped being club sec she had to hand on the membership list to the next 'volunteer'. -- regards Phil Thane Bryn Villa Penycoed Road Llangollen LL20 8LR Wales (UK) ++44 (0) 1978 861677 (landline) ++44 (0) 7971 087623 (mobile) Skype: philthane www.pthane.co.uk -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] List archive: http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
