Instead of creating a program from scratch, I'm going to modify an
existing one. The downside is that I have to learn another programming
language. Along the way, I'll also have to fix some existing bugs in
that program.

The reason for modifying the existing program, is that it means I have
to write one routine (^1) to display the metadata that it currently reads.

Once I've finished that modification, I'll modify a different tool, to
write valid metadata to each glyph.

I don't have a time frame by which this will be done.

I'm in the midst of two major projects, and one minor project.  However,
one of those projects requires LibO to recognize, and correctly display
different writing systems in the same phrase.
(So this is, in effect, becomes a sub-project of one of those projects.)

^1: That is the theory. In practice, I expect to have to fix half a
dozen bugs, and, maybe implement one or two other functions.

[libreoffice-users] can i add a file to a form in base?

2016-11-23 Thread davzeppelin


greetings anyone, i'm trying to create a database where each entry points to
a pdf file too (which is different for every individual form)

following some tutorials on youtube i already made the basic table and form
with simple things: ID, first and last name and description, but i have
found nothing about how to link external files

and another thing, is it possible to make something like a button in the
form that starts adobe reader and displays the pdf file so that the user can
open it from there? do i have to make a macro?

i know pretty much nothing about base, i started using it yesterday for this
project. i don't even know if what i'm trying to do is possible. if not, i
welcome every alternative, different approach or different software

thanks in advance!!!

Sorry, but I'm stumped now. My computer knowledge is fairly limited. 
Hopefully somebody else who knows more than I can help.
