From 1987-2002 I used and developed applications in PC-File (a
flat-file, dbf-based, shareware database) to help with my bookkeeping
work and various other tasks in the company I worked for. Then from
2002 I moved to Access 97 and developed dozens of (mostly relational)
applications for the same job from 2002-2007. Then I moved to a
different state, and have not worked professionally with databases
since. However, I do still have 3 personal database applications that I
use in what is now Access 2003.
What I want to do is to migrate those applications to LibreOffice Base,
or to another open-source database front-end. From what I've read on
this list, I gather that will basically mean re-creating them, almost
from scratch. I also gather that I will want to use an external database
program (HSQLDB? Firebird? SQLite? ..). But I have no knowledge of
those programs. Is there a good tutorial somewhere for any of them?
Preferably one that goes thru the process of using Base as a front end
for them?
Thanks,
