I have a base file attached to a MySQL database on a remote server. I have a form that I use to view and edit the data in one table.
Others also access the database, and I need to experiment with the data in that table without molesting the master copy. One solution would be to make a complete copy of the database, but as I want to make copies of the main table many times a day that would be a laborious solution It is easy to make a duplicate of the main table within the database, and also easy to make a copy of the form in the base file, but what I need to do now is point the copy of the form at the copy of the table. I thought it might be possible to open the odb file as a zip file and find the form data containing the table name somewhere in it, and edit it to the copy table name, but I haven't succeeded yet. Does anybody know if this is possible - or even if there is a much easier way? -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
