Would you recomend me some usefull help for Open Office.
I would like to find some EXAMPLE concerning :
1.) simple form to set parameters,
2.) generating a query with parameters from form,
3.) executing a query, ( generating or updating a table )
4.) making a report based on the table from point 3.)
5.) Passing back some data from the result of query 3.) back to the form to
adjust parameters.
May you send me some usefull internet links for that .
The normal help has to much information and it's quite difficult to find these
really important.
I would like also to read sth about implementation of the transactions
mechanism in Open Office.
With kind regards,

There is no real database application in OpenOffice.org. Having some
database running on a server you may connect a Base document to it, so
the database data are accessible and printable from office documents.
Your (MySQL/Postgre/Oracle/whatever) database can have tables and
relations with referencial integrity, privileges, transactions and the
full arsenal. This has nothing to do with Base. There is no transactions
mechanism in Base. You can wrap a http://hsqldb.org database in a single
Base file instead of connecting to a server, but this type of database
does not support transactions nor multi-user access.
First create your database without OpenOffice.org and then you *may* use
OpenOffice.org as an optional frontend to that database.
Forget the term "simple" in the context of Base. The tool itself is too
simple, which makes it so difficult to build up easy to use database
frontends with it.
