I have created a database in ubuntu 10.04, using openoffice `base' from a .csv file. I can open the database from base and all appears well there.
From what little research I have done, I grok that I should select from openoffice write, the follow process: File->Wizards->Address Data Source The result is a dialogue window with the following title "Address Book Data Source Wizard". 2 active items in the leftmost pane: 1)"Address Book Type" 2)"Table Selection" When I chose "Table Selection" I get the following error message contained in a popup: "The connection to the external data source could not be established. No SDBC driver was found for the given URL" When I chose "Address Book type" I get the same error message. :( If I were dating I would feel totally shot down here. I thought that when I created the database I selected the "register" option. The database has an .odb extension. Please advise me how to procede from here. I am a programmer with 10 years or more on linux and a background in MS-access. Am comfortable with the command line. thanks -- Tim tim at johnsons-web.com or akwebsoft.com http://www.akwebsoft.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
