I cannot disagree more. In Italy, most enterprises and every public
administration are using Microsoft Access, and this represents a problem
when they have to migrate to LibreOffice (as Base is not seen as a good
replacement for Microsoft Access, because is missing the scripting feature).

Just to mention that Microsoft Access (the equivalent to Base) is barely
used in the professional world.
Usually companies use Excel and connect it to MySQL or apps like PowerBI
depending on the purpose.

While the idea of the Notebookbar is exactly this, to provide completely
different UIs, I doubt we can make Base "a variant of Calc“. But you are
very welcome to draft the idea or implement yourself (should be possible
for everyone who uses mailing lists).

I had today a idea i think is a very good one:

One interface option - better if it is the default one - in LO BASE
equal to the CALC one

The reason is that people are using EXCEL for databases
because they do not know
because they have the cheaper version of MSO without Access
and because they think it is "easier"

Doing this and a promo viral video that shows that it is
- as easy as a spreadsheet to insert  and show data
- and as powerful as a database to deal with it,
especially addressed to university professors and PhD students, probably
would increase a lot the use of BASE in substitution of MS Excel for
managing databases, and the use of other components of LibreOffice.

I went to bugzilla, but I was not able to log in, so sorry, but as I
only collaborate with suggestions, I did not want this one that I think is
great, and probably very easy to implement, to pass by.

I remembered an old database named FileMaker that  was very easy to use
because it had a interface near to what a spreadsheet is.
