[Bug 870493] Re: connect wizard does not show the option to link to a MS.Access dbase

 

magowiz, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. This is:
- a clearcut upstream issue. Your welcome to send this to the developers of the software by following the instructions at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport 
- won't be fixed in LibreOffice Packaging
Resolving as Won't Fix in LibreOffice Packaging. This does not mean the issue will not be cared about, but if it is cared about (even by Ubuntu/Canonical contributors), it is done upstream at LibreOffice.

libreoffice (Ubuntu) => Won't Fix

The current method to interact with MS Access files may be found at:
http://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Microsoft_Access_Connection

** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Won't Fix
