[dba-users] DB docs broken by upgrade

[Bob Kline]

After an upgrade from Fedora Core 3 to Fedora Core 4, we realized that 
the OpenOffice suite on a Linux workstation used for maintaining 
business information in a MySQL database had the production 1.0.x 
version replaced with a 2.x beta version of OOO.  As a result, all of 
the documents used to enter and view data now come up empty, and the 
tools we used to have to configure the database connections behind these 
documents no longer appear to be available.  I realize that the OOO team 
probably had nothing to do with the very odd decision to switch to a 
beta version of the major productivity suite packaged with a widely used 
Linux distro, but I was hoping I could get some clues about how to 
unbreak things.  It doesn't even seem as if I can get to the old form 
definitions to see how they were set up so we can try and reproduce 
things like lookup strings for foreign keys to related tables on the 
forms.  Any hints would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks!
