Your link doesn't open. I assume it is https://help.libreoffice.org/7.2/en-GB/text/shared/explorer/database/dabawiz02.html?System=WIN&DbPAR=BASE&HID=dbaccess/ui/generalpagewizard/datasourceType#bm_id763267 but that doesn't support those comments. 1. Database is SQLite 2. Community recommendation is ODBC connection (https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/connecting-base-to-sqlite-in-windows/68168) 3. Wizard text is nonsense for SQLite btw, there's no suggestion of different help text for each OS -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
