Hello All,
I am dabbling with building a DB which contains a message column in which the text can be quite extensive.
I have looked - but I don't see any option within the system - for text wrapping - and that is something I definitely need.
Any suggestions or words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

You don't need to text wrap the information that is stored; rather when you create a report to view your data, you format the output to appear as you desire.

Do you know of any book that has been written on using OOBase that is recommended?

Apache OpenOffice 4.1 User Guides has a section on Base; the whole document is around 40 Mb.
You might find some useful information in Tutorials - Base. Also https://wiki.openoffice.org/w/images/0/ ... torial.pdf, although a bit old, is still relevant.
