I have a guess since I was not previously aware of this method. There is precedence for LO adding support for Microsoft Office (MSO) compatibility. I am guessing that this method was added for MSO compatibility with MS Access (but that is just a guess). I would assume, therefore, that it should act similarly to how the method work in MS Access (again a guess).
When I really want to know, I pull the code and then I go looking for the method in the code to see what it does. Also, if it immediately registers as an error, then you might need to turn on compatibility mode. Well, that is what I thought until I googled a bit This implies that the command is based on an extension rather than directly supported by LO. https://extensions.libreoffice.org/en/extensions/show/access2base https://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/access2base-api-base-users https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/syntax-form-controls-base/45282 but then this seems to imply otherwise https://books.libreoffice.org/en/BG72/BG7209-Macros.html Sorry, not much help :-( On Tuesday, January 24, 2023 15:50 EST, Harvey Nimmo <har...@nimmo.de> wrote: Thanks.
