Hi all,
I have been using OO and LibreOffice prior to 3.5 with Base and Reports. Now
the Reports in 3.5 can not be used any further, instead I had to try (despair)
and create new Reports using the Oracle Reports Tool. IMHO this is a major leap
backwards… It is very, very slow on my Mac (2.13 GHz Core2Duo), it does somehow
not save my new generates Reports. If I choose the Table Model it will write
the Column Heading repeatedly (I did not find a way to prevent this) on each
Row. To Adjust the Columns and Rows is REALLY Painful. It is no longer possible
to use Fields i.e. Page Numbers. Despite setting the Format to A4 Landscape the
GUI will limit placing Labels further than 200mm of a Portrait A4 Page.
I loved the general improvement on 3.5 but this really forced me to downgrade
to 3.4. I hope this gets reverted in future versions, because sincerely I do
not think anybody will use this Editor.
If there is a way of reusing (or transforming) Pre 3.5 Reports in 3.5 onwards
please let me know.
Kind regards
Andreas.

a BIG +1 from me on this as well!!!!!
The repeating headings are a real pain (you know where) and as Andreas
says editing is almost impossible.
Unfortunately I CAN'T revert as the earlier LOs will not run my Database.
Any ideas anyone (please!!!???)
