Openoffice why register database




















The data records are displayed on the right side of the Data Source View pane. This toolbar includes buttons for saving records, editing data, finding records, sorting, filtering, and other functions. For more details about this toolbar, see the Help for data source browser. Below the records is the Form Navigation bar, which shows which record is selected and the total number of records. To the right are five tiny buttons; the first four move backwards or forwards through the records, or to the beginning or end.

In editable data sources, records can be edited, added, or deleted. If you cannot save your edits, you need to open the database in Base and edit it there see next section.

You can also hide columns and make other changes to the display. Once in Base, you can edit, add, and delete tables, queries, forms, and reports. There's no need to open a page; if you start a drawing, there's already a page there to draw on.

In short, the OO database program refuses to let me in, no matter how many times I go thru any process they prescribe. At this rate, and my patience is running thin here after 2 years of this BS, I'm going to have to go back to my copy of Office '97, that I still have the Key License for and do what I need that way, or use the CALC spreadsheet as the database.

I simply refuse to use this new annual subscription service as all that does is hold me hostage to MS, or whoever, and opens me up to all kind's of hacking and intellectual property theft. OO want's to make the database work then all they have to do is scrap, in toto, this asinine registration page and make the database program a straight-in program. OO was founded on, supposedly, the concept of an open system. I'm looking to start a business, and OO can really help, once and if, it ever get's it's head outta it's ass and actually runs as it's supposed to.

To this point I am finding it VERY hard to support the open office concept, when the concept is anything but open but is, instead, noting more than an exercise in seeing how far it can go in pissing me off, and forcing me to go back to MS. Given the failing's of OO's database access, this one's not that hard to see.

There is no separate "database program". All the things you describe have nothing to do with OpenOffice. Please, edit this topic's initial post and add "[Solved]" to the subject line if your problem has been solved.

Ubuntu I have installed OO databases on many PCs and have never had any problem. Have you looked a the Help information?

The download then starts automatically in seconds. Once it is registered, linking your form to the data source is simple. Follow these steps to create a new form and link it to a registered data source. So far you have followed the same steps you used before when you created your first form. Now you link your form with the data source you registered.

Once you have created a form and tied it to a database, you want to use it to enter data into your data source, or modify data already there. Jump to: navigation , search. Creating a simple form Form controls reference Example: a simple form Accessing data sources Advanced form customization XForms.

On the first page of the Database Wizard, select Connect to an existing database and then open the drop-down list.
