Access2Base

What is Access2Base?

Access2Base on LibreOffice BASICu makrode teek (äri- või era-) rakenduste programmeerijatele ja teadlikumatele kasutajatele. See on üks teekidest "LibreOffice'i makrode ja dialoogide" hulgas.

The functionalities provided by the implemented macros are all directly inspired by Microsoft Access. The macros are callable mainly from a LibreOffice Base application, but also from any LibreOffice document (Writer, Calc, ...) where access to data stored in a database makes sense.

Access2Base pakutava API eesmärk on olla lakoonilisem, intuitiivsem ja lihtsamini õpitav kui standardne UNO API. (API = Application Programming Interface, rakenduse programmiliides.)

             OpenForm("myForm") 
   REM Move a form to new left-top coordinates ... 
             Dim ofForm As Object  ' In VBA =>  Dim ofForm As Form 
             Set ofForm = Forms("myForm") 
             ofForm.Move(100, 200) 
   REM Get the value of a control ... 
             Dim ocControl As Object 
             ocControl = ofForm.Controls("myControl") 
             MsgBox ocControl.Value 
   REM Hide a control ... 
             ocControl.Visible = False 
   REM ... or alternatively ... 
             setValue("Forms!myForm!myControl.Visible", False)  '  Shortcut notation 
             ' In VBA =>  Forms!myForm!myControl.Visible = False
