Hi Drew,

I can't think of how to help.

I am using 2.2 on XP also. I have a Base file of type TEXT with *.csv files.

In a writer file I open the datasource view and look at table (file ).

Close the datasorce window and go edit the file.

Switch back to the Writer file and hit F4 again, the change is picked
up in the table.

Then changed the Base file to read *.txt files instead.

It worked exactly the same, all changes made to one of the text files
where picked up when I opened the data source again.

Thanks for your help.
It makes very clear that I (we ;-) ) have to do some further research.
I'll try at another PC/config.
And can you pls look at Tools|OOoBase|Connections and tell about settings there?

I create a datasouce from a txt-file (; or tab separated).

When I:
- change the txt-file,
- close OOo (incl. quickstarter)
- open the datasource window
- ... the data does not show the changes made in the source file.

The context menu in the datasource browser (disconnect) and opening
(plussing) the datasource again, of course doesn't work either.

I'm pretty sure I had this running in the past, one way or another.
Maybe that was an csv, but that's basically the same.

Looking and working with settings in Tools|Options|OOo Base >
Connections doesn't help. (IIRC, I did somethins with the
sdbs.flatODriver in the past.)

This all with 2.2 on XP.

Any ideas?
