Thank you very much Miguel. The reference you gave was *much*
better than the help provided by my pressing the Help button
in calc.
Following the instructions in the reference you gave, I was able to
copy the database data to calc. Then I tried OLE linking from calc to
the database. It appeared to work in calc. Then I changed the
database, expecting the changes to be propagated to calc; however, the
libreoffice just closed (both calc and base and the writer which I was
using to read the LibreOffice_Calc_Guide you gave). When I attempted
to reopen the Writer doc, it worked. I closed the Writer doc and
attempted to open the calc document. Both CPU's kept jumping up and
down (high of 100% or around there) and memory use gradually rose to
89% before LibreOffice again stopped.
Have you any suggestion about how to recover the data
(it was a toy example; so, no big deal if I can't
recover) and how to avoid this problem in the future?
BTW, my OS and LibreOffice version were given in my OP.
-regards,
Larry
I was able to open the base file w/o problem.
I'll just delete the calc file and create a new calc
and try again.
I tried finding a bug for this here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/query.cgi
using search strings:
ole link calc base
then:
ole link calc
then:
ole link
but got zero bugs found.
-regards,
Larry
