Re: [libreoffice-users] Lost Ability To Open Hybrid PDF in Writer

2024-01-01 Thread Robert Großkopf

Hi Dave,


Yes, it definitely seems to be that one. I don't know how I missed it in 
my search of Bugzilla.


Remembered to this post:
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/open-hybrid-pdf-file-in-write-instead-of-draw/99178

Haven't searched in Bugzilla for this one.

Regards

Robert

For a many years I have made use of the facility to export Writer

Writer for editing. I have tried numerous options, including a new

Any thoughts or pointers about how to recover this facility would be 
welcome.

I found a "disappointing" solution, by uninstalling 7.6.4.1 and 
installing 7.5.9.2so now opening Hybrid PDFfiles in Writer works 
perfectly, even with my original profile. Not that I have any problem 
using 7.5.9.2, but I would like to find out why the issue only occurs on 
this one machine and not 2 other Win 10 machines I have tested.

Hi Robert

Thank you very much for this useful information!

Hi *,

stability is a problem for all internal databases. You could test this 
by input some data, save this data and kill the LO-process. No data 
had been saved when database has been opened next time.


Better: Move the internal database out of the *.odb-file. I'm using 
LOBase as backend for Firebird-database files if I create 
standalone-database solutions. Data were saved independent of a crash 
from LO.


Best for solutions for groups (more than one user at the same time): 
MariaDB or PostgreSQL. Both could be connected by an internal driver 
supported by LO. Could also be connected to both by JDBC or ODBC.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Min. skills for Base

2024-01-01 Thread Hanspeter Tschannen
Hello, I work with Base (stand alone) as well since many years, the main 
application with it has several thousand records. However my experience 
is that base is less stable compared to e.g. LO Calc or LO Writer. My 
most critical app is still in ACCESS and I will change that to MariaDB.


As like for any other application the rule of doing a backup is simple: 
Do the backup before the amount of data entry/edit you don't want to do 
again.


I have an app on an external drive and use the internal drive as backup 
drive by using 'Save As...' and use the following file name convention, 
e.g. for today it would be:

MXDB_2024-0101A.odb
MXDB_2024-0101B.odb

for tomorrow:
MXDB_2024-0102A.odb
MXDB_2024-0102B.odb
etc.

Happy hew year to all!

such as
above required for use?

Sort of like the following learning curve:


    1. - Databases store and manipulate data.
    2. - Data can be numeric or verbal.
    3. - E = MC2

Do other folks give up on LibreOffice Base as too technical? Any idea
where
they end up?
