It is possible in forms in a writer document: each form has a property "which
datasource should I bind to".

It is not possible in a Base form document, but (in my judgement) there is no
deep technical reason for that, just that nobody has worked on the
easyhack/enhancement bug I filed for it :) I expect it wouldn't take much work
to unlock that possibility, since the code already supports it!

Open the "Standalone form to be connected to a name database and address book"
attachment, go into form design mode, open the form navigator and look at the
properties of each form.


Since you have a Mac, maybe you could check if this is specific to the MacAB
(Mac Address Book) driver or if it happens with some other address book driver,
too?
