I would suggest running tests and saving the forms, etc. on a CDR for portability and ease and testing the compatibility of the various versions of office to see if you end up with corrupt formatting. 1.4 does have a few Excel formatting issues along with Word. Haven't gotten around to 2.0 tests on our machines yet. Good Luck and have a happy memorial day weekend.

I have started trying out the base component of open office 2. Does the base component support sharing of data and such amongst
users?

Thanks

Please be more specific in your question. Are you talking about sharing data in a network or several people using the same computer with different personal setups? We need to know what kind of setup you have and what your specifically want to do.

You are quite correct in that I needed to explain more. (Haven't had the first cup of coffee yet)

I am pleased to see that Open Office now has a database program. A customer of mine is using DataEase (which is a database system). This system is costly and not too flexible. I am considering porting over the data, macros, forms, and such to the new OpenOffice Base component. One of the things the customer wants to do is share the data, forms, and such amongst the different machines attached to the LAN. They use various flavors of Windows on their machines.

So, what I am asking is, can the data, forms, and such be shared amongst the various machines on the LAN?



You know Scott, the dba project may be a better bet than users. Without
looking at your code, I will guess that the answer is yes you can do
that but ...
So I am copying [email protected] so look there for answers too.

That would be the better area I would think. I looked on the Open Office web site for such but have not yet found a link to subscribe.

Thanks,

Scott
