RE: BASE questions
Hi I am curious to know if you got any useful reply to your mail back on 29/7/19 regarding Base. I have found that it always an item that not many are familiar with and tend o leave Base alone and consencreate 0n the the equivilent to Excel. I am trying to convert an industrial program in excel to Base. I wnote to colleges locally and needless to say none offered even the Ms base. Not even our local Uni so am slowing making my way through using the Internet.

Issues with setting the language to Polish.
Hello, Whenever I set the main paragraph to Polish, nothing will get spell checked. You put in English and it will say that everything is correct when its not Polish. Is there any help I can get into solving this? Attached is the document in question.

Re: BASE questions
Roy, This is a mail list of users of OpenOffice, while I personally can’t help you with this issue, if you’re patient someone who has experience with Base should be able to help you. Please allow 72 hours for replies as this is an international users group and many do not respond to email over weekends and or while they’re sleeping.
