[dba-issues] [Issue 26991] Include Preset Macros and Macro Wizard to Allow for easy MS Access Switc hboard type DBMS Navigation
To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=26991 --- Additional comments from vreid47...@openoffice.org Tue Aug 11 19:19:34 + 2009 --- By far, the database application that I've used over the years that was easiest to create macros for was Lotus Approach, which was part of Lotus Smart Suite. This product had an extensive macro creation guide/wizard that make it very simple for non-programmers to do basic automation tasks using macros. Since IBM/Lotus is implementing Lotus Symphony to replace Lotus Smart Suite, they may be interested in this issue also. In addition, I agree with safway. The macros or code generator or whatever the end product is needs to be based on good coding practices that use stable API's, not half-off hacks that may not work from version to version. Also, there are two extensions by Roberto Benitez: http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/SwitchBoard and http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/BaseTools that provide some of the base macro creation and switchboard creation functionality that needs to be included. I believe that this code could be added to and made accessible in a user-friendly set of rapid application development wizards to get some of the needed functionality into the Base product. This functionality could even be maintained as an extension and installed like the Sun Report Builder. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I want to see some generic code and wizards to help end-users utilize this code that performs the following: Here are some suggestions for macros to include: 1. Open a form 2. Open a report 3. Open a query 4. Close a form 5. Close a report 6. Close a query 7. Print a blank form 8. Implement a stored search 9. Maximize a form, table, or query 10. Minimize a form, table, or query 11. Exit OOO The model I envision when I think of this enhancement request is the macro creation tools that were included with Lotus Approach. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

For example, in most other end-user database software packages (MS Access, Lotus Approach, Ability Office Database, etc) it is possible to create a report that prints mailing labels.

On logon, the OpenOffice Quickstarter program starts. It appears to start 2 processes, soffice.bin and soffice.exe. On my system at logon to my user profile, soffice.bin uses 18,272K of memory and soffice.exe uses 9,060K of memory. After I start OpenOffice Writer and then close it, soffice.bin does not release all of its used memory. It continues to use 43,232K. Next, if I open OpenOffice Calc and then close it, soffice.bin continues to use even more memory: 53,312K. Next, if I open OpenOffice Draw and then close it, soffice.bin continues to use even more memory: 62,536K. This pattern of additional memory usage continues each time I open up an OpenOffice application and then close it. Even after the machine sits idle, with only the quickstarter program running in the task bar, the memory allocation of soffice.bin continues and the additional memory stays allocated to the process. I am able to consistently reproduce this behavior. I made my observations using the processes tab of the Windows Task Manager. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

The read-only part, I believe, does not refer to the actual database. It refers to the fact that OpenOffice opens the form, which is just a writer document, in read-only mode. I can confirm that read-only displays on the Mr. Popov's Mini-Invoices database form. I agree that this seems somewhat confusing, especially to newer/less technically inclined users, but this may be best solved with a note about the title bar's appearance in the OpenOffice User Manual. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

[dba-issues] [Issue 42614] No Way to Share Database A pplications and have multiple people using the same application at once
To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=42614 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Oct 13 15:19:37 + 2007 --- I think most computing professionals realize that you can use Base with lots of other DBMS systems for multi-user applications. That, however, is not the point. The point is that most Windows based office workers do not have the technical capabilities or time to install mysql or firebird on their windows workstation or departmental server, and they don't have the time or technical capabilities to set up a dedicated *nix box to do this either. These people don't have the time to manage these things, and most don't even know what sql is or for what to use it. These workers, which are the biggest potential markets for OpenOffice need a simple out-of-the-box multi-user database. MS Access offers this capability, Corel Wordperfect offfice offers this capability, Lotus Approach offered this capability, Ability office offers this capability, and even the older versions of StarOffice offered this capability (it may still offer this, I'm not sure). The fact of the matter is that many many small and medium businesses rely on these types of shared user created databases to get work done, even though, ideally, these things would be created by dedicated sysadmins on a dedicated server with a dedicated dbms. Most small and medium businesses don't have this kind of knowledgeable database/system administrator available. So, they rely on the office user that's good with computers to do these types of things. I'd estimate that, 90% of the time, this person doesn't have a clue about how to set up a dedicated database service on either his/her computer or on a server. So, my point is that the ability to share OpenOffice's integrated database type and make it multi-user is essential for making OpenOffice a viable replacement to MS Office and others in the majority of small to medium businesses. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

[sc-issues] [Issue 73380] Calc Product Function Retu rns Amount when Cell Empty

I think that it needs to be fixed for two reasons: 1.it is totally unexpected behavior. Basic mathematics says that something multiplied by nothing is either undefined or zero. In this case zero makes the most sense. 2. It breaks templates and documents from previous versions of Openoffice without warning. 3. Excel users migrating to Openoffice will not be expecting this behavior because in Excel (and every other spreadsheet that I've ever used in the past 15 years) the product of two cells, when one cell is blank is zero. and 4. In the current version of Calc, the formula =sum(Cell*Cell) yields the expected value of zero when one of the cells is blank. It seems seems reasonable that the product function would behave the same way. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I also cannot get the gui to join a field to another field in the same table. To sum it up, in build 169 the base relationship tool still seems limited to 1 relationship per table with no more than 1 field involved from each table.

When I view this file as a slideshow in OpenOffice, the transitions between slides take 3 to 7 seconds per slide. So, if I am viewing one of the slides of the slide show and click the left mouse button to go to the next slide, it takes 3 to 7 seconds for the next slide to appear. In MS Office, if I am viewing one of the slides and click the left mouse button to go to the next slide, the new slide appear onscreen almost instantly. Thus, the added transition times between slides when viewed from Impress is rather annoying when trying to jump forward or backwards several slides in a slide show. Sometimes, it can take me in excess of 1 minute to move from the end of a slideshow this size to the middle or vice versa. In MSOffice, this same task will take about 20 seconds. I have tried to speed up the rate at which new slides are presented by increasing the memory allocated to graphics and objects in the options menu of OpenOffice, but these adjustments seem to have no effect. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=36696 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Aug 10 20:11:36 -0700 2005 --- If development time and budget prevents fixing this issue before OpenOffice 2.0, please consider adding information to the included mail merge help that describes how to accurately configure the mail merge to suppress blank lines when all the fields on the line are empty. Here are my suggestions to add to the help 1. Place information on the mail merge screen stating that the default behavior of the mail merge wizard is to not suppress blank lines caused by empty fields 2. Place a link in the help that will take someone to the help about inserting hidden paragraphs. 3. Explain in the hidden paragraph help that each line that uses this feature needs to be a separate paragraph. Note: On my OpenOffice 1.9.m22 build it appears that the mail merge wizard inserts paragraph breaks now by default. That's good if that is the case. If not, the instructions in 4 and 5 below need to be included. 4. Note that the mail merge and label wizard do not insert paragraph breaks between lines by default. The user must do that manually. 5. Include instructions explaining to the user that the easiest way to confirm a paragraph return is to a. Turn on hidden characters and b. hit the enter key at the end of each line and then backspace to remove the blank line 6. Include a final step-by-step example of how to set up a mail merge with hidden paragraphs if the fields on the line are blank. A suggestion for this example is how to set up a page of mailing labels. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=36696 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Jul 29 15:23:15 -0700 2005 --- The lack of a simple way to hide blank lines in a mail merge created by empty database fields basically makes OpenOffice almost worthless to, I'd say, 90% + of US secretaries. Every company that I've ever worked for or provided consulting to will not tolerate mail merges with blank lines in the address, etc. In addition, when a mail merge might be 500 to 1500 items, it is not cost effective to hand edit the blank lines out. Since becoming a self-employed computer consultant 2+ years ago, I have consistently had clients reject widespread rollouts of OpenOffice because it is nearly impossible for a non-technical person to send a professional looking (read no blank lines in the address sections of letters, labels, and envelopes) without manual intervention. I am pleading with you to not send OpenOffice 2.0 out the door without fixing this basic functionality issue. The steps required, currently, to hide blank lines in mail merges, labels, and envelopes that are caused by blank fields makes it impossible for all but the most technical to make a decent merge. In case you are not familiar with U.S. mail address conventions, here are two common address label formats and examples. 1. Title FirstName MiddleInitial LastName NameSuffix CompanyPosition Company StreetAddress1 StreetAddress2 City, State Zip Example Mr. Vaughn L. Reid III Owner Great Big Company 1525 Gregory Street Apt. 227 Anytown, IN 9 - 2. Title FirstName LastName NameSuffix Company StreetAddress1 StreetAddress2 City, State Zip Mr. Joe Smith Esquire Another Big Company 2344 Big Sky Drive MailStop 44 AnotherTown, IN 34567-3445 It is quite common for an address database to mix records with 2 row (or even 3 row) street addresses with records with 1 row of street addresses. It is also quite common to have a variety of completeness for many records. For example, in a single database some records may both the CompanyPosition field and the Company filled completed others may have one of those field or neither field. This means, that, using the first address sample, you could have records that look like the ones that follow from a single mail merge. The ones with the blank lines, as you can imagine, are quite unacceptable. Here are some incomplete examples. 1. Mr. Joe Smith 124 Way Anytown, IN 43532 2. Joe Smith Owner P.O. Box 9 New Castle, IN 47362-4149 3. Mr. Smith Big Company I Want To Impress 123 Blvd. ATown, RI 12345 As you can see, the current mail merge makes my attempts to impress my customers, etc. futile. No one would want to do business with me unless I delve into the mysteries of programming to remove hidden paragraphs or go back and manually edit my 5000 record mail merge. Please fix this extremely important issue before sending OpenOffice 2.0 out the door. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I have 2 tables people and issues the people table has a field people.id that needs to be set as the foreign key on 2 field in the second table. In the second table, people.id needs to be a foreign key with a 1 to n relationship to issues.reportedby and issues.assignedto.

[graphics-issues] [Issue 48302] New - Printing Handouts of Presentations is not Consistent with Help Instructions
To comment on the following update, log in, then open the issue: http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=48302 Issue #:|48302 Summary:|Printing Handouts of Presentations is not Consistent |with Help Instructions Component:|Presentation Version:|680m95 Platform:|PC URL:| OS/Version:|Windows XP Status:|UNCONFIRMED Status whiteboard:| Keywords:| Resolution:| Issue type:|DEFECT Priority:|P3 Subcomponent:|printing Assigned to:|wg Reported by:|vreid47362 --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Apr 27 16:37:57 -0700 2005 --- I recently had lots of trouble printing handouts of an OpenOffice Presentation. The help screen for printing handouts states the following in 680m95 Printing slides as a handout You can print several slides on a single page of paper. 1.Choose View - Handout Page. 2.Click Print File Directly in the Standard Bar. This is no where close to the method that is required to print actual handouts. I looked at issue 47534, and the moderator stated that printing was working so that the bug finder's issue with printing handouts could only be seen as an enhancement request. I believe that statement by the moderator should be re-evalutated. The inconsistency between the method listed in the documentation to print handouts and the actual steps involved is a defect, if not in the presentation module, then in the documentation or the printing modules. Furthermore, printing handouts should be a straightforward task. Instead, here are the steps required on my Windows XP SP2 machine with 680m95 to print handouts. 1. Click the Handout Tab in the main Impress work area 2. Select the layout style for the handouts from the selections in the Layout tab on the far right 3. Click File 4. Click Print 5. Click Options 6. Select Handouts 7. Unselect Drawing (or else I get both Handouts and the Actual Slides -- very annoying) 8. Click OK -- This takes me back to the main printer screen 9. At this point, if I select OK, I will get a set of handouts for the entire presentation 10. If I want to just print some of them, I have to enter the page numbers of the slides that I wish to print on the printer screen. As you can see, this procedure is no where close to the instructions listed in the help contents. In addition, the actual procedure required to print handouts is down-right discouraging. Remember, a presentation program, like Impress, is one of the most used features of an office suite in the business world. As such, Impress really needs to be a slick program and easy to use in order to continue to woo Microsoft Office users and others to the OpenOffice camp. The difficulty of printing handouts will scare people away from OpenOffice. The trouble with printing handouts should be a show stopper for finalizing OpenOffice version 2.0 until resolved. Please do one or more of the following before the release of 2.0 1. Change the actual printing procedure so that it works as easily as the help says that printing handouts should work. This is the preferred solution. It shouldn't take 9 or 10 steps to print handouts. None of the competition's presentation modules make printing handouts that hard. 2. Change the documentation in the help screens to reflect the true nature of the steps required to print handouts in Impress. 3. Explicitly define what each of the options are in the printer screen somewhere easily accessible in the help documentation. Thanks, Vaughn L. Reid III P.S. I'm attaching the document that I used to test printing handouts. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

[dba-issues] [Issue 42610] New - Base gives cryptic error message when autonumber is selected

I had picked a data type of numeric for a field, set it to auto-number, and set it as the primary key when I got this error message. After receiving this error message, I was able to change the data type to bigint and with auto-numbering and set it as primary key and OpenOffice then created the table. If the new OpenOffice database application cannot create auto-number primary keys with a data type of numeric, then the error message needs to be less cryptic and better explain what is going on. For example, an error message with wording similar to the following would be much easier for an office worker to understand: You have chosen options that the OpenOffice database cannot implement. Please choose an integer data type if you wish to use auto-numbering with a primary key. If this is an error in the database application, it needs to be fixed because I think most people will choose numeric as an auto-number primary key. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

The client uses Insight Communications cable broadband and Transedge SDSL broadband. Latency consistently is over 100 milli-seconds on receiving any sort of response from the website. I have spoken with tech support staff from both braodband companies about this issue and they assure me that the problem does not lie with them or their dns servers. My own tests have confirmed this because I am able to reach other websites from the clients' computers. I have observed the same problems from my home SBC - Yahoo adsl connection. At times it takes three or four refreshes for the website to appear. Both myself and my business client are located in New Castle, Indiana, USA.

[dba-issues] [Issue 42613] New - Recovery Wizard Removes Table and Form

Upon restarting OpenOffice, the recovery wizard popped-up and asked to recover both the form and the table which the form had referenced. The wizard did its thing and gave a message that it had recovered the table and the form. Upon exiting the recovery wizard, OpenOffice created two running instances of the database program, one containing my existing database application and a second labeled new database. OpenOffice also created a blank Writer document. Finally, worst of all, OpenOffice erased both the form and the table which it referenced. The table had been previously saved and showed up in the created table list. After the recovery wizard ran, however, the table was removed. I can understand the form getting removed (even though the recovery wizard said that it was successfully recovered), but I think it could be very bad to remove the table also. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

OpenOffice Base appears to lack this ability. This severe limitation on the usability of the application.
