We have observed that some people can´t use a odb-file without registration in LO (LO 3.5.5 and LO 3.6.1; OS: Windows). I encountered the problem to which you are referring on Linux 64bit with Robert's file. However, I had no such problem on Mac OSX. This was why I registered the ODB file with LO on Linux before attempting to open it again. This may have been particular to my setup, or the file in question. Note that on Mac OSX Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Apple's file manager defaults freshly downloaded files passed directly to an app as read-only, under some kind of lame security policy, which forces the user to re-set the write bit by hand or else move the file elsewhere (which seems to automatically reset the read/write bits). However, this doesn't seem to happen on OSX 10.8, and I can't compare with 10.7 because I didn't keep it on my machine for very long.

[Libreoffice-qa] Base - database - registration
Hi * On the German discuss-ML we are currently discussing following questions: If a database-file (odb-file) is opened must this database be registered in LibreOffice? We have observed that some people can´t use a odb-file without registration in LO (LO 3.5.5 and LO 3.6.1; OS: Windows). Further questions are: What opportunities are there, anyway? How is the target direction, i.e. what is the normal procedure? IMHO an non-registered database must not result in an error like an error (non-usability) or even crash/destroy data (= bug). Either this odb-file will be processed (user friendliest solution) or it is a message that this odb-file must be registered first (= feature). What ist your opinion? Should I create a bugreport?
