bvssunnydale Hi, does GS-Base allow for thumbnails? (I'm thinking of using it to organize/track videos & music). Thanks.

Citadel5 @ bvssunnydale:
Hi, images can be optionally displayed and printed as thumbnails.

smgcircle Hi. Is it possible to save searches so that they can be run again? Thanks.

Aug 24 at 5:03am Copy Link

Citadel5 @ smgcircle:
Hi, yes, expressions used as field filters can be saved as named search keys for future use.
Expressions and text strings used in full text searches ("Find&Replace") are saved as "recently used" lists.

smgcircle Thanks! I've created several search keys. Is there some way to display the names alphabetically?

Aug 24 at 5:31am Copy Link

Citadel5 @ smgcircle:
The list of keys can use just the default display order at the moment. However, it shouldn't be a problem to add that option in the new version.

Albert Jester Are there any example databases that we could play with while we are learning about GS-Base for those of us that don't have a database background? I know this would be a valuable tool for me, but have not taken the time to research the manual. Just some examples to help jump start the process would be very nice. I have not found any examples by searching with Google. By the way, I have purchase the GS-Base.

Peter User I am interested in the password security / encryption option in GS-Base. Accoring to the manual for version 16 :

'All encryption parameters are saved in the META-INF/manifest.txt text stream in the database zip file.
If the database zip file is encrypted and you still want to manipulate some its data manually without GS-Base, using Windows Explorer, you must not alter the META-INF/manifest.txt file in any way or you'll risk loosing the data.'

Does this mean that the manifest.txt file contains sufficient information to decrypt the data? I am concerned that a hacker would just need a copy of the zip file to view the data (even if encrypted).

Also what is the MAXIMUM password length - the manual just states the minimum of 6 characters.

Many thanks

Citadel5 @ Peter User
If you do not divulge your password, your data is safe. It's a common practice to include the encryption parameters to enable other programs/tools to access the data safely thanks to the standard encryption key derivation method and the standard data encryption algorithm. So, on the contrary, this can make your data safer.
The password here can contain up to 63 characters. Usually a 6-8 character password with mixed character types is considered safe.

Citadel5 @Albert Jester:
The included sample database shows using text and numeric data, calculation fields, lookup links between tables and pivot tables. It seems it should be sufficient to start creating your own databases quickly.
Anyway, please feel free to contact the support if something's not clear.

Lexadis Hi, Is it possible to write a formula with sumproduct with one or more field with criteria (=, >, <>, left) but on all records?

Aug 30 at 4:16pm Copy Link

Citadel5 @Lexadis
In brief, it's not applicable to the 'sumproduct' function. Only functions from the 'cross-table(…)' group can process all records at once. Nevertheless, with all filtering functions, you can create a calculated 'product' field and a simple one-field pivot table. You'll be able to obtain those sums with a single click for filtered records.
