------- Additional comments from amel...@openoffice.org Wed Aug 18 23:41:50 +0000 2010 ------- Working with Base on files with an embedded database, I suddenly cannot access the data on files I was using this morning. The odb file opens correctly, but when I try to view tables, open a form, or use SQL, I get the error: "The connection to the data source [filename] could not be established. The database was created by a newer version of OpenOffice.org." However, these files were both created on the exact same OO version on the exact same computer, and were last accessed without problem earlier today. OpenOffice was closed normally at lunch; there was no crash that could explain corrupted files today, although I did have a crash yesterday (unexplained, not sure what happened -- copying data [text] into a form and OO hung as if it got stuck in a loop until it eventually crashed). Neither restarting the computer, nor reinstalling OpenOffice from the original disk image, fix the problem. Access to other database files (including my backup file from yesterday's crash) don't have problems. I've copied the odb files and unzipped them to look at the database scripts and cannot find any obvious discrepancies. I'll attach the smaller database file ... and then start re-doing my work from this morning, which in turn was a re-do of work that I'd lost yesterday! And then will remind myself not to design any projects around OO Base until it is up to the reliability standards of the rest of the program. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
