Thank you for your guideline. Two questions for you:<br>
<br>
1. If I go into design view and change the columns from <i>dates</i>
to <i>text</i>, will I lose all my info in the entire database. As
I recall, once I change anything in the design view of the database,
then all inputted data is removed. Or is there a way for me to
change from <i>dates</i> to <i>text </i>without losing all other
data.<i> </i><br>
<br>
2. Once I have changed the column to <i>text, </i>will I be able
to easily switch it back to <i>dates</i> (without losing info etc)
once I upgrade / switchover to Kexi 2.4 (from Calligra)?<br>
<br>
Respectfully, <br>
Satyam<br>

OK, so the ultimate solution is to switch to Kexi 2.4 (from Calligra)
later this year
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://community.kde.org/Calligra/Schedules/2.4/Release_Plan">http://community.kde.org/Calligra/Schedules/2.4/Release_Plan</a>) once
it's released.
You project files will be handled smoothly since Kexi has just moved
to Calligra from KOffice.
Short-term temporary solution for Kexi < 2.4 is to use text types for
dates if that works for you (sorting may not work as expected, etc.).
