oops - to correct the record from my last email. Went back to make sure I hadn't erred and I had. The odb was erroneously upload to the draft folder (for the base handbook) and not feedback. I can't say if there had been anything in that feedback directory or not when I did that. The odb file has

I do not see the Preface file in the Published folder for Getting Started v6.4. I'm sure it was there before (and it's listed on the Status spreadsheet as being there), but it isn't there now. Anyone know what's going on? Jean -- To unsubscribe e-mail to:

Howdy, Found a small single line typo in the macro, called from the example form, in Example_Report_Bill.odb. Fixed it and the form now runs the report as expected. How would you prefer to handle this, do you want these in the feedback folder also? Drew -- To unsubscribe e-mail to:

Hello Jean, I can't figure out the reason why we need to replace the figure. The getting started guide has also got the same figure. Anyways we can remove it because it is not needed for base. Pulkit Krishna On Sun, Feb 23, 2020 at 6:53 AM Jean Weber [via Document Foundation Mail Archive]

I have edited this chapter and returned it to the Feedback folder. I did not track changes because I changed almost everything. It still needs a new screenshot - though I wonder if the section on “What are all these things called?” is needed in this book. Jean On Sat, 22 Feb 2020 at 11:36 Jean
