Hello,

As a user of Microsoft Access (the only MS program I still need) I want 
to compliment you regarding Kexi's direction. I have experimented both 
with OpenOffice Base and Kexi and, in my opinion, Kexi is an easier 
transition for people who use Access.  Form design is flexible (a factor 
that I did not find with OO Base).

There  is one area, however, that I think you need to consider: simple 
report wizards that will generate typical reports as well as mailing 
labels.  Many people who use Access as a stand-alone application use it 
to generate mailing labels.  (Although OO Base has a reports function, I 
found it to be of little use to me.)  You probably could take the 
"objects" that you use for the form and convert them to report objects 
(many times reports are the hard copy version of on-screen forms). 

If there is a reporting function and I missed it, please let me know!

I plan to donate some money to your project--maybe $50 to $100 US.  What 
is the best way to do that?

Thanks,

Mary  Tomich
