I am having huge problems making a list in Data Base. Its so basic I can’t
believe its not happening for me. there is no printer icon in the File menu
or on the tool bar. I have been trying (everything I can think of) for 3
days and read many lists of faqs. I can’t find a printer. (It works fine in
Writer.)
I can’t save changes to a list in the file menu or with ctrl S either. What
have I done wrong?
This has come up before so you are not alone.
In OOo base, you can only print from a report AFAIK. So you need to
create a report (there is a wizard for this) and then open the report,
which will create a Writer document containing the report data, from
which you can print.
I you want to just print a table of raw data, then experiment with
registering your database with OOo as a datasource so that you can
access the database from Calc (you may already have done this when you
created your database via the New Database wizard). Then, in Calc, click
on the "Datasources" button on the "Standard" (Main) toolbar. This will
open up a datasource pane above the Calc formula bar. From there you can
display raw data from any table (use the tree-view on the left) and
drag&drop to a spreadsheet and print it that way (grab the top left
corner of the row/column headers in the datasource data grid and drag
tothe spreadsheet).
