[libreoffice-users] Re: Base, connect to map/grid ?

Hello and thanks for the replies
Should have replied a bit sooner but things kept getting in the way

I already do the name tag in the ground to an extent, but they are
unsightly, go missing and are the bare minimum.
Latin names are useful, not all plants have a common name, common names tend
do be non specific.
I'll also be recording things like date purchased, where from, price, life,
propagation. 

I looked at the mysql possible way and was left a bit bamboozled, couldn't
find an example that did what I wanted and didn’t want to go down that path
unless I knew it would do what I want and be double by me – i've failed with
sql before, just a bit beyond me. Thanks for suggesting though.
A database I can do though – to an extent.

Looks like for me the way to do it is draw out the area in a spreadsheet
(calc) and use the cell reference in a separate database. Would have been
nice to have something integrated but such is life.

Thanks for the help
