I am interested in writing a macro for Base. I will have multiple tables. I
want to be able to read then randomly or sequentially and extract and
compute data based on fields in extracted records and then produce a report.
I know basically on how to program in basic. Where can I find examples of
reading and writing the records in a Base database and creating a report
using a basic program?
I know logically what I want to do. I just need a guide to the language to
use. I have done database programming in Progress on an IBM minicomputer for
a retail POS system. So I have the experience.
If basic is not the language to use then let me know. I just need to know
where to start.
You already know about my database page. Drew Jensen also has a lot of
great material, but I think that it is mostly buried in the OOo Forum
and some of it is on the OOo Authors web site being prepared for general
publication. Great stuff. Drew is a smart guy!
