I wouldn't imagine that would be too much of a problem but I am simply
staggered that it should be necessary. To create a DB in an office program
that has little funtionality other than that of a searchable catalogue is
beyond my comprehension.
It never entered my head that once I had created the DB and entered my data
that I would not be able to fully use it. There should be a big warning
notice.
I will however have another look.

I'm not expert in the field of databases, but may be it's better to try
to start from another side and use mysql database instead of
openoffice.org native format. There should be lot of documentation and
templates for your needs in developer sites like sourceforge.net. It
should be also possible to reach and manage mysql databases from
openoffice.org.
But it's only my personal suggestion...

Surely, Andis, that cannot be correct.
I have created a data base comprising what may be described as
Customer Details (addresses etc), Products, Orders, and despatch. I
can produce any report I wish.
However I wish to do two things more:
1. Create a cvs file so I can select from the Customer details the
records which I can import into my email program either Thunderbird or
OE
2. Create an integrated Mailing List, again from the Customer Details.
Without these to facilities the use of the DB for other than playing
with is very, very, limited.
