I've heard that LO Base has no where near the capabilities of MS Access.

 LibreOffice Base supports backends like MySQL/MariaDB and SQLite, either
of which goes way beyond the capabilities of Microsoft Access.

   Except Access had a nice WYSIWYG form builder.
   Libre had that for AWHILE ... but not so much anymore.
   It's 'database' is mostly a limited front-end for a

   As for the 'limits' of Access ... I developed a few

   You DO have to write a bit of code to reach those
