--- Comment #3 from Albrecht Müller <albrecht.muel...@astrail.de> --- Hi Alex, After I switched the user interface language to English (UK) I found: right click to some object (can be a table or a form) -> Database -> Advanced Settings -> Form data input checks for required fields. The corresponding check box was checked and I unchecked it. I was not able to notice a difference. When I close a form showing truncated content I sometimes get a dialog box asking me I a want to save the changed record. I have got the impression that this message does not appear if I just navigated to some record containing truncated content. If I had set the focus into the control containing the truncated content (without changing anything) the dialog appears when I close the form. It is complicated to assess when changes to the database occur as the table view seems not to reflect these changes immediately, i.e. I have to close and reopen the table view if want to see current content of database. I don't think this is a duplicate of 65644 as this bug is related to version LibreOffice 4.0.3.3. My problem in related to Access 97 databases, and to my knowledge the Access2Base feature is not included in versions before 4.2. (see http://www.access2base.com/access2base.html) Using previous versions I had no easy way to connect to MS Access databases. The behavior of this bug seems to have changed between versions 4.2.3.3 and 4.2.4.2: In version 4.2.3.3 memo fields were truncated in the table view. In 4.2.4.2 the table view shows the full content. (I don't have 4.2.3.3. installed now therefore I cannot verify this observation again). Both versions are unable to display the full content in forms. I think this bug is really dangerous as it makes it very easy to inadvertently destroy database content. Albrecht -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
