My attempt to modify the name of a field in my database resulted in the field being deleted (along with all the data) and a new (empty) field of the modified name being appended. :-( I decided to restore the database from a backup, but having done so I am getting this error message:

"The connection to the data source "BGRAWalks" could not be established. File input/output error C:\Users ................\BGRAWalks.odb.properties java.io.IOException:"

This comes up when I click on Tables, or when I try to run a query (the queries are listed).

I have tried (a) restarting my PC, (b) closing down Quickstarter & (c) opening the d/b from Quickstarter, but all to no avail. Other databases are working OK. I'm running OOo 2.3.1 on Windows Vista.

I don't know if this is relevant, but when I started my PC yesterday I got the OpenOffice.org Document Recovery screen. The document name was blank, and status "not recovered yet". I clicked Start Recovery & it came up "successfully recovered"; I clicked Next and the BGRAWalks d/b was opened. It was working OK, & appeared to be in the same state as when closed the day before. I made no amendments to it yesterday. I am getting the same error message on backups taken pre and post yesterday's OOo recovery.


Can anyone help, please?
