I could open the file and then after a small wait (15 seconds when selecting the property) change the path to the actual local odb file in the OO.o GUI. After that the form appeared to function correctly. The day before, using OO.o 3.0 / Ubuntu 8.10 it did hang when I tried to change the property. I have not had the chance to try OO.o 3.0.1 / Ubuntu as yet, though I would be surprised if it didn't work similarly to XP. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Thank you very much and instead of hard-coded path in a 'connection-resource' you need a 'datasource': Instead of: you need, within the . Despite my efforts to find the information I did not go through. But if you get an odt form with hard-coded path there is no other solution than changing the path in content.xml . I am closing the bug because it doesn seem to be a priority. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

It appears that you are using an ODB file for the address data. In this case what you should be doing is registering the ODB file with OpenOffice.org. This registration process allows you to have a common name for the datasource associated with the correct path on the individual users machines. When you distribute a new form then, the use of the Registered Datasource name, versus the hard coded path to a file should avoid this proboem totally. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

I am sure that it is a common problem: you want to distribute a form and an empty database for many interviewers. The interviewers have their own laptop with various configurations. The have to bring back the odb file once the interviews are done. The only solution is to write a small program which, once the odt and odb files are stored somewhere (on a USB for example), will get the current absolute directory unzip the odt content.xml , modify the former path to the current path and update the archive. The official documentation is very confused on this point. They speak of registering a database, but the hang occurs before the registration. And registration doesn't change anything too. You can close this bug if you think that a hang is not a bug. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Just download EssaiOO-dev.odt, click on any of 3 input text areas. Once you get the classic dashed green square right click and choose Forms in order to set a new path to the database (which you can also download). Tell me if it hangs?

The only solution that I found to move both files to another machine is to change the path iinto content.xml In order to do it (I haven't found the following on Windows) I just right click on the text file name, choose => 7-zip and Edit (not open, not extract), then an editor is used and when I save the new file content.xml, 7-zip asks me if I want to update the archive and I say yes. The simple test is just to navigate within the 4 records from the writer. If your name is not brouard it won't connect and hangs. It is a very easy bug, too easy to be true. But I looked at bug 96134 which is similar which has been fixed with latest snapshot DEV300m37 (build 9371) to change to a relative path. But it did not work too. I am not using F4 because it is not a mailing with fields. Hope that with these files attached you can understand better the problem. You can also give me a simpler way than modifying content.xml . - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

It is not a xform document, a simple odt file with forms which access to a oobase database. Even if you stay on Windows only, you can't change the path if the path doesn't correspond to an existing database because owriter checks (or seems to check) its existence and hangs if it doesn't exist. It is a real bug because it hangs. I can't send you my forms but I will try to simulate the problem on a newer and more simple form with a simple database.

As you indicated, they are different between machines. It sounds like you are trying to use OO.o base to perform XForm type of stuff; thus, your approach doesn't address what you are trying to accomplish. You want to look into using OO.o and XForms to accomplish what you intend. One possible good writeup is titled "XForms and OpenDocument in OpenOffice.org" by David Eisenberg on the internet: http://opendocument.xml.org/files/xforms_ooo_06_10_25.pdf Another possible option (if he doesn't need to sync the data between all users) is to build an internal, native form within OO.o database. (I know this is not the support form, and things need to be kept on topic, but in an effort to help and direct nbrouard to the correct location I have mentioned it. If nbrouard wants to pursue this, then he might want to go to one of the many support forms such as http://support.openoffice.org/ for further help.) :-) - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.

Component|Database access Version|1.0.0 Platform|Unknown URL| OS/Version|Windows XP Status|UNCONFIRMED Status whiteboard| Keywords| Resolution| Issue type|DEFECT Priority|P3 Subcomponent|none Assigned to|dbaneedsconfirm Reported by|nbrouard --- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Oct 30 17:28:07 + 2008 --- We are using a nice (writer) form which is linked to a database. And thus, the form and the database are separated. When we release a new form (keeping the database design unchanged) and send it to the interviewers on the field, they have to sync the new form to their old working database. It means, from what I understand, that they have to click on the "Design mode" button, click on any form control in order to highlight the "red dashed rectangle" and either right click in order to select the "Form" line or on the main "Form" button in the bar. >From their onward, they must choose the "Data" tab (others are General and Events) and select a their old "data source" path where their old database is. And here is the problem, when the new form has a different path from the interviewer's setting (USB key, drive E: or whatever other path) oobase claims that the association is not correct and ask for OK or Option (Option tells you the error). But whatever you are doing, by clicking on OK as many times as asked, it starts freezing or crashing. If the new form comes from a Linux platform (2.4.1) (with a very different path like "/home/myname/" instead of "c:\Document and settings\") it works: it means that you can click on the ... at the right and associate the old database to this new form. But if the new form has been built on Windows XP (either 2.4.1 or 3.0) with a path which looks similar, oobase tries to find the database ''before'' offering the possibility of changing the path and crashes or freezes. Is there another way to attach a form (.odt) to a database (.odb)? Or is it a bug? Many thanks for your time. - Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
