You probably need to "register" your database - which you could have 
done in its creation. To do it now:

o Go to Tools | Options... | OpenOffice Base | Databases.
o Click New... and browse to your database.
o Give your database a registered name.

Now it should appear under Database in the Labels dialogue.

I trust this helps.

Printing labels

I am trying to print some mailing labels.  I have converted my spreadsheet

Default currency language for Singapore

2020-06-14 Thread Ragu Devan 

Hi, I would like to feedback a gross mistake in Open Office Options Menu
options -> language settings -> languages -> default currency for SGD

is stated as “SGD S$ Chinese (Singapore)”

As a Singaporean, I would like to inform that this is offensive given that our 
national language is Malay but we have four official languages namely Malay, 
Chinese and Tamil as well as English (derived from British) which is the common 
language and is used for all legal purposes.

I hope the Open Office could rectify this mistake during an update and change 
it to “SGD S$ English (Singapore)”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singapore for your reference and thanks for your 
understanding in this issue

Thanks and Regards
Ragu
