--- Comment #12 from QA Administrators  ---
Dear Lionel Elie Mamane,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today,
LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed
bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this
bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the
details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in
getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information
from Help - About LibreOffice.

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to
RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help
- About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular
meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a
REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your
bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from
https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat:
https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team

--- Comment #11 from Jeff D. Hanson  ---
I recommend using UCanAccess:
https://ucanaccess.sourceforge.net/site.html

It doesn't do everything that ADE does but is cross-platform (Java) and has
some advantages.  For example, ADE has a limitation in that VBA functions are
not available over ODBC.  A query using Nz would have to be changed to IIF/IS
NULL.  UCanAccess uses JDBC and supports Nz.

Instead of bundling a driver and increasing the installer size it would be
better to handle drivers like DBeaver which has a driver installer that looks
for the versions available and installs them as needed.

In order to limit the confusion between ProposedEasyHack and EasyHack and to
make queries much easier we are changing ProposedEasyHack to NeedsDevEval.

Thank you and apologies for the noise

Hi Lionel,

What's the status of this bug/enhancement? Assuming it's still relevant, could
you please move it to NEW and change it to a (confirmed) EasyHack?

Thanks!


(Side Note: What's the license on the driver?)

(In reply to comment #1)

 What's the status of this bug/enhancement? Assuming it's still relevant,

Yes, it is relevant.

 could you please move it to NEW

Done.

 change it to a (confirmed) EasyHack?

My understanding is that it becomes a Easyhack, as opposed to a
ProposedEasyHack when someone has checked there is no hidden bad surprise. This
has not happened. This needs someone with a clue with Microsoft Windows.

 (Side Note: What's the license on the driver?)

Need to check in the download. Probably something similar to the msvc
redistributables we already bundle?
