Appending Extra Options to a List Field in OpenOffice Base
12 December, 2009 Leave a comment
Many forms have at least one drop down field that provides a list of choices, with one option being an “other, please specify” type field. In OpenOffice Base, the source providing the list of options could be another table. In this case, you do not want to add an entry into the source table just to represent other. In such a case, you can use a macro to make the option appear.
