          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: Serial Letter Assistant fails silently to create .odb
                    files
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: mwith...@rekers-beton.de
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 4.1.5.3 rc
         Component: Writer
           Product: LibreOffice

Excuse my bad english...

Selection of the adress file in the serial letter assistant didn't work. You
could not press the OK button in the file selection for the adresses after
selecting a .ods file.

The problem is, that writer tried to create a .odb file in the working
directory. Since our users have a (beginning) working directory in which they
have no write-permissions, the creation fails. There is no error message, the
OK button is left gray and nothing happens.

At least, the assistant should give an error message. But more we encourage to
use the temp directory for the .odb files instat of the working directory. The
.odb files are not deleted in the working directory and only used for the
temporary purpose of creating the serial letters.

Thanks!
Martin
