hi,

I don't see any export functions or "save-as" alternatives for Base (or preferred database formats on the options page about saving. Is this the way it's supposed to be? I can't imagine it doesn't import and export as csv, at lesast.



I am preety sure that you can do both. Have you checked existing
documentation for help? Try http://documentation.openoffice.org/ and
http://dba.openoffice.org/

It seems (after reading a bit on the .dba.user list) that hardly anything that was implemented for Base found its way into the beta. They do mention the automatic import of Calc tables, so if I really think I have to enter serious data, I should be save doing it there.


I'm a total newbie at databases and was hoping that the introduction of Base was a good opportunity to get into the right way of thinking - it turns out it's not. Waiting for the next release and hoping for a less frustrating experience,
