          Assignee: [email protected]
           Summary: EDITING: TABLE FIELD PROPERTY AUTOVALUE CAN NOT BE SET
                    IN SPLIT DATABASE
          Severity: major
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Windows (All)
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 3.6.4.3 release
         Component: Database
           Product: LibreOffice

In a database with tables stored separately in accordance with advice at
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/FAQ_%28Base%29#HSQLDB it is impossible to
design a table with an Integer/AutoValue field using the Table Wizard or Design
View.

Editing table field parameters in such split databases is a known problem but
there are workarounds involving complex copying and pasting as described at
http://forum.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=54254 but this method
does not allow an Integer field to be set to AutoValue.

The problem of editing table field properties is a significaant issue for many
users and I would like this to be looked at but the inability to set up an
AutoValue field is much more serious.  It is a basic requirement to be able to
set up an Integer/AutoValue field as a Master Key field in a table so this is a
serious defficiency and I hope it can be addressed as soon as possible.
