------- Additional comments from dawnepamp...@openoffice.org Tue Oct 26 21:49:15 +0000 2010 ------- Quote from Help: In the Design view, you can now create the fields for your table. Enter new fields in rows from top to bottom. Click the Field Name cell and enter a field name for each data field. Include a "primary key" data field. Base needs a primary key to be able to edit the table contents. A primary key has unique contents for each data record. For example, insert a numerical field, right-click the first column, and choose Primary Key from the context menu. Set AutoValue to "Yes", so Base can automatically increment the value for each new record. I wanted to set AutoValue to "yes," but couldn't find it anywhere on the table design screen. The AutoValue option isn't available unless you have the correct data field type -- I was using TINYINT and SMALLINT. When I switched over to a regular INTEGER, the AutoValue option appeared. It would be nice if the Help Documentation would tell what field types work with AutoValue.
