I have 2 databases created under OpenOffice 3.2 using Ubuntu Linux 10.04. Both databases have the same permissions and are in the same directory so the parent permissions are also the same.
I purged OO and installed LO. Still using Ubuntu 10.04. If I open one of my databases in LibreOffice 3.5.4.2 it works fine. If I open the other, I can read it but I cannot add a new record nor can I edit an existing record. It seems to somehow be marked as read-only. I have been unable to find a way to make it read/write. I got around the problem by exporting to a spreadsheet, creating a new database, and importing to that database. So I'm back in business. But for future reference, how the @#$%! do I make the original read/write or at least get some sort of error message - and yes I've checked the Linux log files for messages - no joy there.
