Hello All.
I have returned all twelve ODT files and the ODM file to Nextcloud, in preparation for a 24.2 Base Guide. The tracking spreadsheet has been updated accordingly.
Please note the following:
-
All files have been changed in some way, although for the majority the changes are limited to ensuring that captions do not extend onto a second line and moving images around to avoid excessive white space. Also, all files have been updated to an early 24.2 document template.
-
The Preface has been updated to state where in the document the significant changes can be found.
-
Chapter 2, Creating a Database, has been modified. Changes were tracked, so sidelines should help you locate them.
-
Chapter 3, Tables, has been re-written. The scope of the changes is wide-ranging and tracked changes are not available (they quickly became unmanageable and pointless). The primary objectives of this re-write were (a) achieving greater alignment between the chapter and the content of the other guides, and (b) incorporating improvements that have already been made to the German Base Handbuch. At this issue, the chapter focuses on an HSQLDB 1.8.0 internal database, using it to demonstrate how to carry out typical table-related operations using Base.
I would appreciate any reviews that can be carried out, particularly of the chapters with significant changes.
Regards,
Steve
