--- Comment #5 from Alex Thurgood <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Carl Pettit from comment #0) > Provide option to hide specific tables, queries and views from ODBC/JDBC > connectors etc. > The problem with such a wish is that you would need to provide settings options on a per-user basis for a single ODB file. That is not a trivial endeavour, and is probably not supported by the ODF 1.3/1.4 standard. As Robert has mentioned, it is easier to set up different files containing only the required queries, forms, reports, etc, which are then made available to only those persons requiring that set, e.g. via a corresponding file share or making the file available in the user's own writable folder. For ODB files which connect to a server backend DB engine, rather than the embedded kind, if additionally, you make the shared ODB file read-only on the file share, you will prevent users from adding their own "variants" of the forms, queries, reports to the file, but unfortunately not prevent them from saving the file under a new name in their own readable/writable folder (unless you have some permissions policy in place which prevents that). One might reasonably argue that it is not the LO project's remit to define file management properties for the files it creates. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
