Hi,
I'm now using OO 2.3, but the following were true also of 2.2. I'm
fairly new to OO after decades of MS office modules. The context is
that I'm building a simple database and using a form to input data. I'd
appreciate information or advice on the following:
1. why does the form always open with "(read only)" displayed, yet new
data can be entered, and saved.
2. search does not work. No matter what I try, the result is always
"Search key not found". It is the same whether the entire table or a
column is selected on which to search, and playing with the various
options makes no difference.
3. One of my columns contains dates. The input format is very
restricting - such as the year cannot be assumed to be the current year,
and omitted. Is there a way of getting more flexibility in inputted
date formats?
4. One of the columns contains $$ data, but it displays as ordinary
decimal values with no decimal point unless cents are involved, and
trailing zeroes are dropped. Is there any way of displaying currency
values in the usual format?
thanks in advance.
Mike Shearer
