I have been a successuol user of MS Access for 10 years or so. I have developed a large database. This consists of records of case documents and the actions associated with those cases. I used a form to show the basic data from the table containing the case records. The actions were recorded on a separate table that appeared as a sub form in the main form. In this way I could quickly review a case and the events relating to it. Various other queries help me control my work. I have spent hours trying unsuccessfully to reproduce this set up in Open Office. Help will be appreciated but I am over 60 years old and I do not wish to spend what is left of my life trying to understand the ins and outs of database construction. Help will be much appreciated - or advice not to bother.
