Well I figured the links are already in place. They'll
just activate
when I put data in the boxes. Administering a database
in a database
manager just seems efficient. It's been fantastic for
Thunderbird.
Well, that's not quite the same ! OOo Base for managing contacts is easy
because it's just a big table. For each contact (or entry), you've different
fields (mail, phone, address, ...). Each entry is independent from the rest.
But for genealogical data, in addition, you have to manage LINKS between
entries : for a wedding, you've to link 2 entries. Therefore, each time you
modify a link for a person, you've to synchronize the information for the
other(s). I'm not sure it's easier with a database manager.
Moreover, Gramps is much nicer (look'n feel) than a database manager !
