Hi.

I have an odb file, previously connected to an sxc file. However, after
adding an extra record to the sxc file, I saved it as ods instead and
deleted the sxc file. So I figured that I have to "assign" the new file to
the odb file, right? And I tried to but failed. I tried Edit - Database -
Properties, and I selected the new file. However, base didn't care, it was
still connected to the sxc file which doesn't even exist.
Next I tried Edit - Database - Connection type, but that failed the same way
too.

If I am not supposed to edit those things, why can I edit the corresponding
fields in those dialogues? Looks like a bug to me, or did I miss something
again? Is the only way to obtain this to just start all over again from
scratch, connecting a new database to the new spreadsheet?

That's what I am going to do anyway, but still, if this is a bug I think it
needs to be corrected. It's frustrating anyway. When I change something,
whatever it is, I expect my changes to take place. If not, I must not be
able to change any fields which look like they are going to do things for
me. That only creates frustration. I will be happy to file a bug report
about this if no one tells me that I am wrong and that it is actually not a
bug.
