Hello all.
I thought I had gotten the data from a flat file (xlsx) into Base. I
was trying to import and create a new database.
My work requires my data to be in the company OneDrive. When I try to
open the connected flat file, I get errors that the file location or
parameters are not OK. So all the work I did is lost. This is likely a
bug but I don't have time to report this at the moment.
Apparently I incorrectly used: "File:Connect to an existing database" as
that just appears to connect to the flat file but won't actually create
a proper table in Base. While I can understand the use case for just
accessing a flat table, I'd like to import not just connect.
There has to be an easy way to import the data without having to
manually create a table and then import the csv file. What am I missing?
I'm just trying to get data into Base easily.
LO v6.4.0.3 on Win10 64B.
Thanks in advance.
Sorry, I should have added that I'm on digest so please reply to the
list but also to me directly.
Thanks.
