Thank you very much for your kind answer. It was at great help. Both
connection and importation works fine following your guidance.
Glad to hear it!
And then one further question: Is it possible to enter new data into
the database-table, once it has been imported into the database? Or
shall I enter new data into e.g. an txt-file and make a new OO Base
with connection to the updated txt-file?
Once it's been imported, you have a fully functional database. You
can enter or edit data (you might want to create a Form to do this),
create queries and reports, or whatever.
Thanks again. I see that others have the same problem I did with
editing data in a table. For me the solution was to let OO Base
automatically ad an ID to my data during importation. without an ID
the table will be displayed as "read only".
Sorry, I didn't mention that you *always* need to have a primary key. If
there's something suitable in the data already, you can tell Base it's
the primary key; otherwise, letting it add an ID field is the right
thing to do.
