Sorry, Base is not a database program. It is hardly more than a bridge 
between database backends (MySQL, Postgre and many others) and office 
documents (serial letters, bibliographies, calculation models,...).
The single-document type of zipped HSQLDB can do a small fraction of the 
stunts you may know from MS Access but at the high cost of bad 
performance, single user security, bad safety (data loss).
Base is extremely useful in what it has been made for. No more, no less.
Greetings,
Andreas
