I have uploaded BG6208 to the Feedback folder. I left a comment on pg 26 where the instructions listed made it impossible for me to duplicate. A rewrite seems to be needed to made with more detailed instructions.

At the bottom or pg 26, daylight savings time was mentioned with a query that involves it. Since this begins between March 8 and 16 and then ends between Nov 1 and 7, I am not sure that the query is accurate. Such a query would be complex since the time period begins on the second Sunday of March to end on the first Sunday of Nov.

I have downloaded BG6210-Database_Maintenance for review #1. Given the size of the file, this should not take as long as I anticipated when I updated the spreadsheet.

I have reviewed Chapter 7, Linking, where I found a lot of out of date
material and some that did not correspond to what I see, or that I
could not figure out what was going on. I left a lot of comments about
what I did and what I think needs to be done. It's in the Feedback
folder, and I have updated the status spreadsheet.

I will now look at Chapter 4, Forms.

Hello Dan,
BG6208 is not in the feedback folder. Only BG6207 was in it which was
uploaded by Jean.

Hi Jean,

I have reviewed Chapter 7, Linking, where I found a lot of out of date
material and some that did not correspond to what I see, or that I
could not figure out what was going on. I left a lot of comments about
what I did and what I think needs to be done. It's in the Feedback
folder, and I have updated the status spreadsheet.

I don't know where I could find the documents you are working at. But
I'm interested in the "out of date material", because I have to change
it also in the original version of the Base-Handbuch.

Regards

Robert

Hello Jean and Dan,
I have accepted both your changes for chapter 7 and 8 respectively. I have
uploaded them back to draft folder. I have updated the spreadsheet.

To Dan:
I don't know about anything summer time. I have used google translate to
translate that part. There is nothing like that in India, from where I am.
Do you think that the portion is incorrect? If so, can you kindly correct
it.

To Jean:
Many of your comments were right and I have edited the content to make them
correct but some of your comment were wrong. I think you are using a later
version of LibreOffice than 6.2.8. This guide is based on version 6.2, so I
h=am using version 6.2.8 and everything is working fine for me. Base itself
has not changed much but writer and calc has changed in the recent updates.
I have kept a copy of your edited file so that it would be easier when we
are updating this guide to version 6.4.

I am testing using LO 6.2.8 on Linux Mint when working on this book.

Chapter 6 has been uploaded to the feedback folder
(BH6206-Reports_PK_JHW_PK_DJ_20200315.odt).

This file has 8 typos fixed and no additional comments added.

I had almost added comments on a few paragraphs that spent a lot time on
flaws in the Report Builder but, they are all still there and accurate so,
backed on that.
