OOo 2.3 on Linux.
For some reason when I attempt to create report in Base all the
controls and stuff come out with the strangest assortment of default
fonts based on numerous styles. It also comes with four headers and
four footers, none of which I ever want. It's a pain to have to go
through and change all the styles and delete all the unwanted headers
and footers. I want to change the default report template, but I can't
find it.
I do know about File > Templates > Organize (I have created a lot of my
own Writer templates for various purposes), but I can't find the report
template. Where is it?
Well, now I am confused - I thought you where using the Report Builder
when you mentioned the headers and footers, but then you mention styles
and those are in Report Wizard. Two totally different packages - but
since Report Builder doesn't use styles ( least not that you can get to
in the UI ) I'll assume it is the Report Wizard.
I'll try to help if I can., but I have one question. Could you just
describe the report you want to produce? - I still have a copy of a
database with a table structure based on our earlier exchange and if you
could tell me what you are trying to make I might be able to suggest
Report Wizard or Report Builder as the way to go.
If the best tool is Report Builder then you might just want to wait for
a few more days, version 1.0.2 will be released simultaneously with OOo
2.4 and if you upgrade both packages together it clears a whole
multitude of bugs and adds a number features that, from the sounds of
things, you could make use of. For example a pretty good re-work of the
Query analyzer. ( just upgrading one package and not the other doesn't
help really, you need to do both )
Let me know - meanwhile I am will go and read your last mail and see if
I can pull some information from that.
