------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Dec 25 12:05:22 -0800 2005 ------- When I do this: 1) start OpenOffice Base from the Start Menu, which runs the Database Wizard; 2) select "Open an existing database file"; and 3) use "Open" to select a DBF file (eg, DISTRIB.DBF), then I get a screen with the Forms icon highlighted. When I click on the "Tables" icon, I get a message box stating: "The connection to data source "DISTRIB" could not be established." It also speculates that this is a driver problem. The More button leads to an Error icon with gives "S1000" as the SQL Status. If I use File | Open to open a second DBF file -- I get the Import dBase Files box and then an OpenOffice Calc window with the data displayed. If I use File | Open on the first DBF file, I get the same error. If I use File | Close, the OpenOffice Base window closes. However, I can now open the original file (DISTRIB.DBF) by using File | Open from OpenOffice Calc. The point being, the file itself is a properly-formed dBase file, and the drivers involved are clearly able to read it. If I close all OpenOffice windows and double-click on DISTRIB.DBF, it is opened without any problems. (I did search using "dBase" but none of the issues found appeared to be reporting this same problem). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
