Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 108038
Appending tables with selected entries appends all records
Last modified: 2017-05-20 10:24:19 UTC
Hi, Drag&Dropping a selected set of DB-entries from table A and appending it to table B will append all (!) DB-entries of table A and not just the selected set. - This happens with Adabas-Tables as well as with MySQL-Tables - and maybe with other tables too.
Changed subcomponent to none. @ beerhalter Please describe step by step what you did, when problem happened. You selected records from table A and tried to insert to Table B? A and B table has a same structure? They within same or different file, or connected to different server?
Tables A and B are from the same database on the same server (i.e., my PC) - the columns of B are a subset of A, but there are additional columns that are not to be transfered from A, i.e., an autoindex-filed IDX and a keyword-field MM. MM should be left blank to being filled in later by a keyword. The problem is not the structure, but the fact that instead of the selected entries of A, all of the entries of A are being transferred to B. Thanks for your looking into the problem.
I can confirm this. - select 2 records in the table view - copy these 2 records with CTRL+C - select a table in the main database windows with the same structure - select paste from the context menu of the table - finish the wizard ==>> not only the selected records are pasted but all records of the table. tested with OOO320_m8 and hsql database
Please take care for this. Thanks.

note that the selection is preserved as long as the source table data view is opened. This is irrelevant for drag and drop, but when you copy the selection into the clipboard, then the clipboard is emptied as soon as the table view is closed.
Thank you for your efforts. - Hans B.
targeting to 3.3, since the fix is part of a CWS which aims for this release
