Hi Frank,
thank you for your friendly answer.
I tried the MySQL/JDBC Driver and it worked well.
It only does not seem to support auto-increment fields...
Best regards
Hinrich
With OpenOffice.org 2.0.1 I am using mySQL (version 3.23.55.) as
database, the connection driver is JDBC (8.0.0.8971).
My problem is I can't make any changes to the database, except
creating
new colums.
When trying to edit a table via "tables > edit" all the fields are
greyed out.
...
Are you using MySQL/JDBC or JDBC directly (verify in
Edit|Database|Connection Type)?
To reply to your question: I am using JDBC directly.
That's the problem :). The MySQL/(JDBC|ODBC) bridge exists exactly
because the mere native drivers do offer all functionality. In
particular, there is no standard for the SQL syntax for editing table
columns, so a generic JDBC driver can never provide this functionality.
The MySQL/JDBC driver in OOo cares for MySQL's specialities, so you
should always use this one.
Ciao
Frank
