Indeed I would agree that this probably doesn't belong on dev channel - there we discuss code not "how to's" or feature requests.
I actually would have just recommended the user list :) If that fails, the OOo forum is good, also our Ask site have some great contributors that know quite a bit. If it's a feature that you want I would recommend reporting a "bug" and marking it as an enhancement request: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport Maybe just rephrasing the question and making a new thread where you say "how do I...." might get some good responses from people who use Database often.
