Bear in mind that you have to keep the mouse button pressed down. If you just right mouse button click, I've found that the context menu only appears briefly before disappearing. I have to keep the button pressed down and move the mouse cursor onto the menu entry in order for the dialog to be opened. Not a huge nuisance for someone used to working with interfaces, but a PITA for non-tech savvy users who complain :-))) Have any of you noticed that the binary data isn't available in the table representation of the data once images are stored in that field ? This is what I've noticed with the JDBC connector and was wondering whether it is a connector problem because with the MySQL query browser, you get the option to view the data as both binary data and the actual image representation. In the OOo table view, I have just a load of blank fields. One would expect at least the binary data representation. This used to be the case for memo fields in earlier versions of OOo, haven't checked recently whether that's still the case.
