Actually, no one has yet to respond that primarily uses Base. You
would probably say that I don't either considering the amount of time
that I use Writer. Yet, my primary use of LibreOffice is writing what
should become the future Base Guide. I am also experimenting with Base
to see all of the things that it can do.
Then there are the personal uses I have for Base. The purpose of
a database is to store data and then access or manipulate the date to
obtain information that is needed. Just some of the databases that I
use includes Bible study, schedules, grocery lists, medical tests,
financial (income and expenses), calories consumed (amount by food
type, record of the over a period of time), and utility consumption
including statistics about it. the queries in these databases can
reveal quite a bit of information.
Dan,
Thanks for the ideas about Base. I've used it for arranging and printing
mailing lists, but I haven't gone beyond that. I can only imagine what
I'm missing by doing something manually that might be better done with
Base. I'm intrigued in how you use it for Bible study. My Sunday school
notes are typically a mass of disconnected thoughts written in Writer.
If Base can help organize this, I'd love to learn it.
I look forward to your Base Guide
Virgil
