Base save problem

Post by Nifty »

Hi

When I go to save my Database to another name eg ver1.6 I get a something Fatal Error without any message. then Base stops responding.

The only way I can seem to get around is to copy the file eg 1.5 and save as a 1.5copy via Explorer. However I then lose my Java installation on both files.

Help please.

Before saving the document under another name you should close the database. Tools>Sql... SHUTDOWN [Execute]
Do NOT use the embedded HSQLDB.
Use Base with an external stand-alone HSQLDB.

[Python] Macro to extract and reconnect embedded HSQLDB pulls an embedded HSQLDB into a database folder.
FreeHSQLDB v.0.3 provides a little GUI to connect a Base document with a stand-alone HSQLDB.
