Hi,

Is there a second part to that error message - usually a button that in English says 'more'?

No, the base opens, when I try to click on 'Tables" the first message is in french (I am french) it says :" impossible d'établir une connexion avec la base de données "base name". Impossible d'établir une connexion à la source de données externe : le pilote SDBC n'a pu être détecté pour l'URL spécifié" The dialog box has an "options" button which opens a second dialog box where I found the english explanation quoted in my topic.

OK - was it working before and just stopped.

When you open the Base file the connection to the database engine is not automatically created, that is when you click on the table icon, or open a form for data input. Where you able to do that before and then perhaps add a new table before closing it this last time?

Thank you. I had an idea. Yesterday I tried to install a program (ComptaOne) and did not succeed (perhaps version not adapted to Vista ?). I thought that this could have damaged Ooo. So I removed and re-installed Ooo and now it works !
