Editing databse in Table Design mode. If I change a field name it generally
makes no issue. If I change the field name and also the length (though I've only
tried increased field lengths) then I get a warning: The column $FieldName
could not be changed. Should the column instead be deleted and the new format
appended?.

Choosing No. Leads to the change being made anyway. This change is immediately
written to the database and can not be bypassed by a close-without-saving. This
wiped out the main field in 500 records of my db. Thankfully I've probably only
lost 50 or so as I have backups.

I have reproduced this bug. Perhaps it's as simple as the Yes and No
controls being wrongly labelled? However if that is the case, why is the write
performed without user action?

Probably the most serious bug I've come across with OOo/StarOffice in my 8 years
of using it.
