Hi :) Many, many people do "goof on the resend". The mailing-lists here are set-up to ensure that it does happen. Glad you noticed and were able to fix it. Most people don't realise!
Apache are far better at supporting Base. Here we rely on a few regulars who happen to be extremely good with it but they don't seem to have been around this weekend. Sorry! :( Apache forums seem quite happy answering questions about LibreOffice. Unfortunately they seem to have 1 forum that is over-run by spammers and 1 that is excellent and i never remember which is which. A google search gave me this forum; https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/ with this section for Base; https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewforum.php?f=13 This section has some example databases (perhaps worth modifying?) https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewforum.php?f=100 This thread seems to cover how to use Calc for a Form/Report https://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=75&t=18511 but sadly doesn't cover the final step of showing how to build a chart from there. My guess is that the chart would be fairly easy from where that thread finishes. Apache have further documentation; https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Database Note that a LOT of the resources Apache has were originally developed by people who are now in LibreOffice and that there are quite a few people who work in both projects. There are also video tutorials http://www.spoken-tutorial.org/list_videos?view=1&foss=LibreOffice-Suite-Base&language=English from a project funded by the Indian Government. The quality of English is excellent and it's rare to find one with any hint of an accent (unfortunately). I think they take quality very seriously despite but are still quite a friendly organisation. We should advertise these tutorials more widely imo. Regards from Tom :) On 23 June 2014 07:48, Charles-H.
