[libreoffice-users] I need help with functions in Base
Hello I'm starting with queries and functions. Right now I know how to tackle queries, but I don't know very well how may I use functions on queries. I would like to master all functions, so I need examples with functions. The problem is I don't know where may I find help with this? *I'd like to see samples about these functions*: Average, Count, Maximum, Minimum, Sum, Every, Any, Some, STDDEV_POP, STDDEV_SAMP, VAR_SAMP, VAR_POP, Collect, Fusion, Intersection, Group Sadly I don't have seen any documentation from LibreOffice explaining every function with a sample. Please, could someone give me some examples for these functions? I'd like to see them working and what everyone do.

The bare minimum of functions in the file based databsaes (spreadsheet, text, dBase) is documented here: http://www.openoffice.org/dba/specifications/file_based_functions.html File based databases support only one aggregation COUNT(*) The built-in HSQL 1.8 (which should better not be used embedded into the Base document) is documented here: http://www.hsqldb.org/doc/1.8/guide/ch09.html Any resource on SQL can teach you how to use all these functions properly, particularly the aggregation funcions together with GROUP.

Am 18.03.2015 um 23:10 schrieb xavier2: Hi Andreas, thanks for the amazing info you gave me. Well, I was not meaning to SQL, because what I want to do right now are queries using the gird, the queries window. The grid (do you mean the design view?) creates an SQL statement as you can see when you toggle between the design view and SQL view. There is a toggle option in the menu and on the toolbar. The query designer does a very bad job. It is almost useless because it can only produce baby-SQL. Within a weekend you learn much more SQL than that tool will ever be able to handle. I can demonstrate lots of working queries that are messed up completely once you load them into the design view. I wanted some examples of this, with already created queries. Exactly the last link you gave me... https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=83t=26328 On the linked forum you find dozends of example files with all kinds of calculations. However, I need a bit more: I would need help to understand these functions: *STDDEV_POP, STDDEV_SAMP, VAR_SAMP, VAR_POP, Collect, Fusion, Intersection* STDEV is the standard deviation, VAR stands for VARIATION, POP for a full population, STDDEV for a sample, I don't know about Collect, Fusion and Intersection. You might find them in SQL tutorials. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Business Cards - Printing - Libre Writer version 4.3.5.2
There is a program called gLabels. I use it to create mailing labels. Re: business cards, I would avoid laser, as business cards are usually stacked together, so they rub. They will wear off the laser toner. Ink is soaked into the paper so it won't come off. That would interfere with the image that you are trying to create.

Thanks so much! Charles. Hi, menu:FileNewBusiness Cards... Fill out that dialog and LibreOffice will generate a page with separate frames representing the space of one card. --- If you want to use one of the downloadable templates from various sites, these have basically one table without borders. Each cell represents the space of a business card. Right-click and check Table Boundaries to make the cells visible on screen but not on the print out. Now you can edit a single table cell to your liking, copy the cell content and paste into each cell.
