Anticipating NatTable
Posted: Sun Aug 09, 2015 3:46 am
Hello,
Can you give your users some idea of what we can expect with the introduction
of NatTable.What was your motivation for it? What do you hope it will accomplish,
for Rel neophyte users, for more sophisticated users. Is stored Rel data
(in Berkeley Java DB) going to be accessed thru NatTable in Rev? What will be
the relationship between external (CSV/XLS/XLSX/JDBC) sources as relvars and
NatTable? Does NatTable have its own sublanguage/commands that will be at
users disposal? Will it feel familiar to Excel users? NatTable can ostensibly
export to Excel, does it offer any other export options? Do you see it offering
the ability to do simple "reports" (perhaps similar in fashion to MS Access).
Hope you will forgive all the questions. Chalk it up to excitement
thanks,
steve
