------- Additional comments from [email protected] Mon Aug 24 01:16:25 +0000 2009 ------- Hi All! I made a simple contacts database for a friend whose computer came with a version of Office 2003, which doesn't have Access. So, I created the database using OpenOffice Base (3.1.0), on Windows 7. I have all OpenOffice components installed on my machine. Installed Base on his laptop (running XP). Copied the database over, opened it, and was given a "The sdbc driver could not be found" or something like that. Installed Draw, just in case the reports needed it. No dice. So, I searched for quite awhile on the forums, to find out that Calc also needs to be installed, just to use Base. Installed Calc too. Then, when I'd open the database file, and try to open the Form that I made, I got a "This file could not be opened" error. If I'd try to open a report, it would say that I needed to install a Sun(TM) Report Builder extension. Installed Writer and Impress. Now it works fine. So, can the installer be fixed to install all components necessary ONLY for Base to work, when Base is selected to be the only component installed? Now, my friend may just be confused by having 2 full office suites installed. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
