Hi Sonic,

Dear BRO, SIR,SIS,
May I know is there any other alternative ways to create mail merge with
libre base and generate report from libre base without opening other program
like libre writer or libre calc to do it..
which mean that , want to using 1 program only to do all the job that's
libre base .

Short answer : for mailmerge, no. You must use Base in combination with Writer

If you want a report, you can :
(1) use the Oracle Report Builder, which is a built-in extension, accessible, for example, via a Base (ODB) file ;
(2) use a Calc file and design your own report using data ranges;
(3) use a Writer file, and insert your data fields from the table or query of your choice ; (4) write an external program using python, javascript, beanshell, perl, php, etc to manipulate ODF compliant XML and interface that with your datasource.

If there any tutorial or suggestion pls do let me know tQ your's help are
much appreciated...
