Hi David,

not sure if this is a bug or my own lack of skill... but we have a
simple database (.odb file) that has had about 400 records entered into
it manually. We didn't use an external DBMS or anything like that. For
some reason it now appears to be read only - or at least I have now
noticed it says 'Read-only' at the top of our data entry form.
On the toolbar Formsdesign, there's a button to toggle design mode.
actual definite problem is that I want to copy this data into something
else, but the 'export' option in the menu isn't selectable. We've tried
sending this file to other computers and opening it there, but it still
seems to remain read-only.
I'm not aware (lack of experience) of an option to export direct from an
ODT.
A good option for you:
Select the table in the view with tables;
Right-click and choose copy;
Open a Calc-document;
Past your data ..!
Now choose File|Save As and choose .csv.
