It's funny. I tested this with the second attachement. The database had been
created with LO 5.4. You couldn't add more than '12345' to a
5-characters-field. A message appears, that there couldn't be added more than 5
characters. Try it.
After reading comment 16 I tested it with a database I created new. And soon
the described behaviour appears. It isn't the same bug which appears first, but
the behaviour of the database created with LO 5.4 is better than the behaviour
of the database created now.
Has the internal database been changed since LO 5.4.0.0.beta1?
