Hi :)
Only in Forms and Reports.  Not in the data (Tables) or in the Queries.

I haven't used Base yet and don't really know so this is just guessing from my 
impression of what goes on ... 
I think you are meant to use Writer or Calc to "connect to" or "link to" the 
Queries in Base.  Then you use fields in much the way you would "mail merge".  
That means you can apply normal formatting to the fields or the text and stuff 
around that in the rest of the Writer or Calc document.  

Does this link describe how to do that?

There was this link on the main LibreOffice website
http://www.libreoffice.org/features/base/


I hope to start reading this quick guide or handbook that is in the process of 
being translated from the original that was written in German 
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications#LibreOffice_Base_Handbook
The chapter "Linking to Databases" is the other way around.  It's about using 
external tables in MySql or PostgreSQL rather than having the tables in the 
internal back-end.  

I get confused around then but i think Base then 'just' has the queries and the 
relationships between the tables.  Then Base feeds into Forms and Reports 
created in Writer.  So Base is a bit like a bridge?  
Regards from 
Tom :)
