[libreoffice-users] Re: OO Base has serious critical issues...

I had no idea that there was anything left of DBII/DBIII - I lived that
program!  

Also regarding Base, see:

Steven, glad you have been able to make it work; you appear, as I have read
above and elsewhere, to be either lucky or highly skilled in this endeavor. 

Believe me, I have been using PC's since before PC's (Apple II) and every
time I decided to "try again" and get a 25 name address list into a database
in OO, it failed me.  Yes, I had assistance online, and many (sometimes
conflicting, most outdated) references (some posted above)

Personally I care not what's under the hood, because anyone who can read a
manual can get under the hood.  But if you can't find the keyhole, and then
when you do, you find your key doesn't fit...

Someone needs to get this on the "main agenda" at the DF; either devote
immediate resources to make this work "out of the box", to add some sort of
enhanced UI or "shell"  or a set of up-to-date, officially created
tutorials, or as I noted before, abandon it completely (leave it a blank
space or negotiate to acquire an existing database application and rebrand
it).
