Since I upgraded to version 4.1.5 of Open Office none of my reports in Base will open. They are all visible in the reports tab, but when I try to open them I get the message "The document 'docname' could not be opened".
I'm operating on aWindows 10 laptop.
Apparently Oracle_report_builder does not work with the later versions of Open Office, so I am unable to load it as an extension.
A big disappointment as all my 20+ report developed previously are now useless.

Re: Open Office reports fail to open
That error message usually occurs when the reports were created with Oracle Report Builder, but ORB is currently either not installed or disabled.

Re: [solved] OpenOffice reports fail to open
ORB works fine with OpenOffice 4.1.5, I just used it to create a new report.Apparently Oracle_report_builder does not work with the later versions of Open Office, so I am unable to load it as an extension.
A big disappointment as all my 20+ report developed previously are now useless.
If you are having trouble, download and install a new copy of the extension
https://extensions.openoffice.org/en/pr ... rt-builder
By the way, ORB is the standard report generator for LibreOffice so there is no need for the extension.
