Hi Frank,


I'm missing the bug number here ;)



Guess I must have fallen asleep while waiting for the mailmerge to finish ;-)

Seriously, I'll collate some info from other users as well, because this has been a relatively frequent reproach made on the French n-l users list. There's even a RFE been filed to bring back the old mailmerge / Address Sticker wizards

As a start, this looks relevant. The OP even mentions that it is "slow".

http://sw.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=issues&msgNo=122621

http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=48059

which was listed as the original issue, but this doesn't mention slowness / performance.

Maybe I'll open a new issue about performance, mentioning Issue 59276, and confirming the performance problem. The sample data is also available in this issue.



Sorry, but this is nonsense. When you do a mail merge based on a MySQL
table, *no* Java is involved at all. As far as Base is concerned, Java
is used for certain auto pilots (*not* the mail merge AP), and for the
HSQLDB backend. If you don't use both, you won't ever start the JVM.

Well that put me straight then ;-)

Am I then wrong in assuming that you can not set up a database document without Java, and that without a database document created beforehand you can not do a mail merge using the wizard even if you are using a mysql db ?

Just remembered that you're off on holiday, so you probably won't read this until you get back. Well anyway, have a "guter Umzug", see you back here no doubt afterwards ;-)

bye,


Alex
