This does sound more like an FAQ item. I am not sure if it would be 
documented in the Base Guide. Maybe before adding it anywhere, you could 
see if whoever is working on the Base Guide would think it is worth 
documenting. Otherwise it could go into an FAQ or added as an entry to 
the Ask.LibreOffice.org. Not sure who you would have to contact for 
that. I know that connectivity with Base and other databases is quite an 
issue with that module.

Re: other knowledge base LibreOffice items. You can probably find a spot 
for them somewhere. Once we get the forums going, this will also add 
another area to post the fixes/tips.

Cheers,

Marc
