Description khoh64 2003-08-14 20:17:54 UTC 
When you work on a document that contains database forms, switching back and
forth between edit and form mode to check out its function, it often appears
that some of the forms become defunct, meaning they don't show their content
anymore. This seems to happen primarily when a SQL-Query failed, but I'm not
sure about the exact cause. I haven't found any means inside OOo to switch the
forms back on, so when you already saved the document in this state, it will
seem corrupted. However, looking at its xml code, one quickly sees that the
respective forms have gotten a new property:

form:ignore-result="true"

Once you delete this, the form is functional again, leaving me wondering what
sense this property might have had originally...

I think this problem affects all versions of OOo I have tried so far.

This pretty much sounds like issue 11879 - but 11879 is already fixed
(as I just verified in RC2).

khoh64, could you please try to nail this down? It's hard to guess
what caused this, so it would be great if you could do some triage and
give us more info, if possible.

"ignore-result" corresponds to the "Add Data only" setting in the
properties of the form - it tells the form to not display any existent
data, so it can be used for data entry only.
Resetting this property should give you back the usual functionality.

Thanks for the explanation of the 'ignore-result' property, it's
exactly as you said and as described in 11879 and 13548, I'm sorry
that I overlooked all this and stole some of your time...
Indeed, I couldn't reproduce the problem in RC1, so maybe I created
but overlooked it while using an older Version and just stumbled over
it when editing the document in RC1.
I think this one should be closed.

/me sighs with relief :)
I was afraid that the problem could have re-incarnated in some special
situation ...
