Writing a manual for BASE

Post by baser »

Hi

Just joined this forum. Open Office user since 2005.

I would very much like to develop personal databases and post the tutorials online since there is not much available that I can find.

I want to contribute to the BASE project by developing an example database and documenting the steps. Hopefully I can the recommend the use of BASE
to the university I graduated from and other institutions. Unfortunately at work we are using 'another database' at the moment.

Any advice?

Greetings and welcome to the community forum!

You may need to search further: there are a few available, but I don't have the links handy.

Both office suites are very much the same. The two Base components are almost identical. The text by Mariano Casanova was written when LibreOffice did not exist.
