Hi again,

My first message on this topic doesn't seem to have made it through to
the mailing list. So I'll try again.
I've installed OOv2.0.3 on XP and Write and Calc work okay as they have
done in the past. I've never been able to get Base to work properly, but
I have to now if I am to continue using it in this job.

I first tried importing an MS Access database and it seemed to import
okay. However, I cannot get any SQL queries to run. All produce the same
error message. The queries all run perfectly on MS Access. I thought it
might be the fault of the import, so I created a toy table entirely in
OO Base and tried a trivial query on it:

SELECT *
FROM personalinfo
WHERE suburb MATCHES "Gladesville";

Syntax error in SQL expression
syntax error, unexpected $end, expecting BETWEEN or IN or
SQL_TOKEN_LIKE

The table is there, the field and values are within it. The SQL code is
one of a number of variations that I tried in hopes that OO might harbor
peculiarities of syntax. I even replicated this by creating the same
query (I hope) in design view. Same error. Does anybody know how I can
get Base to work?

Jim
