Jacob Floyd :) My name is Rigel When using OpenOffice Base, I prefer to setup a table first, with all the fields, and then use the form wizard, to make a form based off the table :) Then I modify the table after. Rigel

I try to find a tool, and I end up learning yet another thing in the process of researching something else so that I can learn enough to be able to do this project. I'm having a dominoe effect in what I need to learn to do what I want. The design I mentioned earlier, it didn't seem to be all that easy to work with. So I'm trying to figure the stuff you guys mentioned out. I think I get it, now to figure out how to set it up. How does one go about creating forms in Base? I can create a form with fields but I see no way to go through all the table recores. ugh. Grumbles before going to bed.
