It sounds like you want a database and not a spreadsheet. You may find the sample database tables that OOo Base offers useful as a starting point. Start by navigating to File - New - Database, to create your database. At this stage, although it's not mandatory, make sure you register the new database as a data source so that you can access the data in your database from Writer (for mail merge etc.) or Calc. When you finish creating the database OOo will start Base where you will find wizards for creating Tables and Forms for your database. The Table creation wizard includes several suggestions for tables and their columns that are commonly used for business applications. You can choose any of these, or not, and also select which of the suggested columns you want to start with. Later, you can add new columns, or modify them to suit your needs. OOo also includes a Forms wizard that will generate simple but complete forms for your tables. Again, this is in Base. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
