Hi :) If only it were possible to somehow communicate with people from the various back-end projects perhaps even ask them to write-up a brief sub-chapter on how to use their back-end in conjunction with Base. I wonder if any of them know anything about the use of Sql in their projects.
The BoD want to sit&wait rather than be pro-active about this sort of collaboration.

Chapter 8 of the Base Guides covers using HSQLDB 2.2.8, MySQL, and PostgreSQL as back ends. So, I am not there quite yet. It seems that because Base uses HSQLDB 1.8, it does not conform with the user guide for the database engine it uses. When I get to that point, I will need to research how each of these backends use SQL. --Dan > > Dan schreef op wo 18-07-2012 om 16:40 [-0400]: > >> Andreas Säger wrote: >>> On this simple level I would consider HSQLDB as free of bugs whereas the >>> primitive Base parser fails in many different ways. >>> Did you try the direct SQL mode (SQL view, menu:Edit>Run SQL directly)?
