But to the best of my knowledge, providing authentication data as part of the connection string is the only way to prevent the user from having to enter the password everytime he want's to access the database, e.g. for grabbing an address for a mail-merge in Writer. I understand that this approach is terrible from a security perspective, but it's viable as a compromise in certain usage scenarios (e.g. when access to the odb file can be restricted by other means). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
