--- Comment #8 from jorge.mouri...@gmail.com ---
After your latest message I decided to return to my backed-up copies of my old
database document and see what happened.
I back up my files on a daily basis, but the back-ups made over the last week
all did not work.
I moved backward in time until I found a back-up copy that would open correctly
as database, and made a note of the date.
All the back-up copies made until the end of January, BEFORE I upgraded
LibreOffice to 6.0.1 on Mac 10.13.1 opened correctly as database documents.
(*.odb) . But the first few back-ups made in February, also BEFORE the upgrade,
didn't open.
All the back-up copies made AFTER I upgraded LibreOffice to 6.0.1 on Mac
10.13.1 did not open except as word-processing documents. (*.odt)
The file is now restored and working correctly as a database (I have opened and
closed it several times with no problem, and it works as it should, as a *.odb
database).
But I'm not quite sure why this is. I don't know if there was something that
happened at the beginning of February that caused the document to be corrupted
and no longer open as a database, or if this is a problem created by upgrading
to 6.0.1 that affected some of the back-ups. As far as I can think the database
worked just fine during all of February until I first encountered this issue
two days ago. There were no crashes or unexpected quitting by the program.
Have you had other cases where database files suddenly stop working this way
after an upgrade?
Thank you for all your help on this subject.
