Hi :)
It might be interesting to ask the same question in a few other places,
although some places might need options such as i don't use office
software often or using the names of the equivalents in KOffice/Caligra.
I wonder if a proper vote thing could be set-up easily on the Apache
OpenOffice
I was simply concerned to grab an opportunity to educate. One sees these
sorts of pseudo-surveys all the time, and people think they actually
mean something - which is to say that we can infer something from them.
That is completely fallacious.
I'm a relentless educator. That's my problem.
I use Calc almost exclusively - daily, and intensely, for personal
scheduling and task management. Nothing else I've tried has anywhere
near the flexibility or utility, by a considerable margin. I'm totally
committed to this tool for meeting that need. It just works (usually!).

Hi :)
Wow! At last some people using Calc more than Writer. Interesting to see
neither seem to need or use Base at all. It kinda makes sense of the high
quality answers we see about Calc though. Other posts in this thread
showing a very low usage of Calc had me worried. I know it's possible
I don't have a clue, but I guess something like this:
Calc 998 ‰
Draw 1 ‰
Math ⅔ ‰
Writer ⅓ ‰
Base 0 ‰
Impress 0 ‰
But, as I said, I have no clue. Maybe it's even more Calc and less of the
others.

I think that is exactly the way Base is meant to be used. So, top marks!
Good to see!

It's just a just for fun survey of what people think they use.
The modules can't be split up and removing any wouldn't reduce the

Good morning.
I bothered to comment at all about this for a three reasons.
First, I have a long standing serious interest inductive logic - as you
know, this is the logic upon which all scientific endeavor depends. Not
a fun topic for me, but a vitally serious and important one.
Yes, Tom D., this was just for fun, and given the response from so many
people, I think most have taken it in the way I intended.

Useless or not :-)
Going by the number of files used,
Calc = 90%
Writer = 9%
Base = 1%
And yet, I consider that one base file the most important.
I also have a few files that I work with in Corel. When I have time, I
will switch them over to Draw, but for now I have other things to do.

Hi :)
Actually a mainstream press article might lead with a heading such as

handle pivot tables quite so well as Calc so therefore Calc is the best.
Such an article would carefully avoid pointing out that each module is the

I hesitated to reply to this thread because I don't use LO's native Base,
HSQL, but rather, for the last 3 years, I have been using H2SQL, which is
proving much more robust that HSQL. But I guess that Base is designed to
be the front end for all the major databases, so here is my contribution.
For me:
Calc90% of my LO use
Writer 8%
Base1 have never had a use that really needs it.
Draweven less than base

Calc: By far the component I use the most. I use this regularly.
Mostly small stuff, household finance spreadsheets, usage stats,
bank statements, that sort of thing.
Writer: The second most used, although I seldom use this.
Impress: I have used this on a couple of occasions.

I should use Draw more. It's the better tool for the job for the company

Draw = 10% (mostly use Inkscape and Gimp tbh but Draw trumps them for

Personal use:
50% Writer
50% Calc
(Impress perhaps twice a year).
But as a translator I am walking through the other components one after
another. I like to know what I am translating. At the moment I am
working partly on Impress partly on Base.
