2010/12/1 Frank Schönheit <frank.schoenh...@oracle.com>: > Hello Alexander,
Good evening! First, thanks to everyone to offer your help. I was quite busy lately, but I also got the chance to test out a few things. First, RC7 showed the same results on both, OSX and Linux. I also tested an older version (I forgot which, some 3.1.x, the one which is currently shipped with CentOS 5.5) - with the same results. >> Accessing a few thousand rows works just fine, however, I got one >> table with about 1.2 mio. rows at 11 columns. >> ... >> OK, I'm not sure if Calc was made for my certain usecase or for that >> much data at all - but I thought I'll give you a hint that issues >> exists. > > Honestly, accessing 1.2 mio. rows is ... stretching Base's limits.

I already thought so; I just helped myself and did the right thing; aggregating and limiting the data using a query and then calling the query from OOo Calc. I should've done that in the first place, but I was in a rush of banging out a few quick diagrams. To be honest, I was about to abuse Calc for a task it wasn't made for - I'm currently reverse-engineering a rather bitchy DB-schema and I just needed a data-viewer which was also able to create some diagrams rather quickly. >> So, what should I be supplying for a bug report?

Yeah, you're probably right. But thanks a lot for the help! > Ciao > Frank Cheers, Alex. -- "We Do What We Must Because We Can" -- Aperture Science --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@dba.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@dba.openoffice.org
