Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 18609
table copy auto pilot: fields lost when no target type could be found
Last modified: 2007-09-20 09:06:36 UTC
* create an ADO data source pointing to an MDB file of your choice * have/create an arbitrary dBase data source * create the table described in issue 18594 * open the data source browser, and drag'n'drop this table onto the "Tables" container of the dBase data sorce => the "Copy Table" auto pilot pops up * without changing anything, click "Create", to use the initial settings made by the pilot => an error message pops up, saying something like "no corresponding type could be found for table 'memo'" * confirm this => the pilot jumps to the "Type formatting" page, where it suggests a new type for the column * press "Create", again => the table is created, but only with 3 fields instead of the original 8. The problem is that when jumping to the "Type formatting" page, the pilot "looses" all other fields after the one which caused the trouble. This can be manually worked around by going back, adding all fields, and going forth, but this isn't really obvious. There is no warning, indication, whatsoever, that the pilot is currently *not* doing what the user wanted (namely: simply copy *all* fields, including *all* data).
