Access2Base

What is Access2Base?

Access2Base on LibreOffice Basic -makrokirjasto sovelluskehittäjille ja edistyneille käyttäjille. Se on yksi kirjasto "LibreOffice-makrot ja -valintaikkunat"-toiminnon alla.

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.

Access2Basen tarjoama ohjelmointirajapinta (API) on suunniteltu yksinkertaisemmaksi ja helpommaksi oppia kuin tavanomainen UNO API.

Compare Access2Base with Microsoft Access VBA

REM Open a form ... 

          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
