Where do you get that idea? You can create a database using a calc document as your data source and create queries and forms and reports as you would with any other data source. Your only restriction is that you can't do data entry, so any changes have to be made in Calc. On Tue, Feb 14, 2012 at 5:49 PM, Andreas Säger <villeroy@t-online.de> wrote:
You can export the address book in tab or comma delimited format. You can then import that file into Calc and do whatever you want with it. No, you can't do anything with database data in Calc. You can not query virtual tables nor can you generate reports nor serial letters. The TB export to csv is completely pointless. Once you connected a Base document to the address book you have the all the contained tables plus the groups defined in TB plus database queries in Writer and in Calc for multiple purposes without further export/import procedures. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Base-Phone-book-tp3744152p3745361.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+help@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
