In addition, support for JDBC and ODBC standard drivers allows you to connect to virtually any database.īase integrates seamlessly into the rest of the Apache OpenOffice suite applications, for example: When a personal use database is all you need, Base offers the full HSQL relational database engine, configured for single user, with the data stored right in the Base file, as well as native support for dBase flat files.įor power users in the enterprise, Base delivers native support drivers for a variety of multi-user database engines: MySQL, Adabas D, MS Access and PostgreSQL. This is made you have not to change the macros but you need a little knowledge about forms.Base is a fully featured desktop database management system, designed to meet the needs of a broad array of users, from tracking a personal CD collections, to producing a corporate monthly departmental sales reports.īase offers wizards to help users new to database design (or Base) to create Tables, Queries, Forms and Reports, along with a set of predefined table definitions for tracking Assets, Customers, Sales Orders, Invoices and much more.

In other word I believe there is no principle problem. The reason: It is more a little problem about finding the good form with giving the names to the form and the control.

When this form is a little more complicated in the way it is a subform and not a mainform and you do all kind of selecting in the mainform then I believe it can work but not now. But I have on this moment no idea what is important.Īgain this is not for updating a great number of records but only some records. Now I knew how I can change a date control in this way I can maybe also change other kinds of control in the same way. I believe it must work but I have not test it.įor the date control you cannot only change the data to an other date but you can add days,weeks,month or years to the date. Do not change the other control or the macros. Make a new grid control but keep the name of the original grid control. I also believe that when you have an own database and you want use a form with a grid table you can use your own database.īind the form to the database and table or query you want. This database must be registered and then you need to bind this form to the database. When you want use this example then you have also to download the complete database in the first post of this thread.
