I am using MySQL and have designed a form (with OpenOffice) however I am unable to get the form to get data from two different tables/fields within the same database....
Is it not possible....?

My structure is:

                        /phonebook (personal data - name, address etc)
Addresses--->
                        \business (business data - business name, contact etc)

I would like a single form that could display, update, add etc., data to both tables.

I can do this with a database front-end such as Knoda - however it would be more convient to do it all within OpenOffice.....

Thanks,
Jim
I have not had a problem creating a form that can access multiple tables. Typically, you will create a subform that links to a parent form and then indicate which fields are used for the link. In fact, if you use the form wizard, it should talk you through this. Hmmm, I am assuming that you are using 2.0 RC 2 rather than 1.1.5. Version 1.1.5 probably does not have a form wizard to automate these things. What version are you using?
