Which of these steps have you not done?
1) Create a new database in Base. (A wizard helps you through this simple
process.)
2) Clicked Table in the main Base window.
3) Use the wizard create your tables.
a) Use the Personal Category
b) Select Addresses as the Sample Tables
c) Moved the fields you want from the Available fields to Selected fields
(I recommend that you include AddressID as your first field.)
d) Make sure AddressID is selected as the Primary key
All of this is discussed in the Getting Started Guide available at
http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/index.html.
It is the chapter intitled Getting Started with Base. There is a section in it
on how to create a table using the wizard.
