[Solved] Form cannot be deleted.

Post by fruitjam »

Now I know this sounds a pretty mundane issue, but I've been flummoxed by the way OOo has been behaving.

I use the OOo version 3.0 Beta. I created a table in a database. Using the Form Wizard, I created a form based on that table.

I deleted the table. But, I cannot delete the form. I have tried rebooting the PC, restarting the application (i.e., Base), restarting the OOo quick starter - all in possible permutations. Nothing, works.

Can someone please help. :?

Yours sincerely & respectfully,

Okay friends, I am sorry to have bothered everyone with this. I could finally delete the form, and here is how I could do that:
1. Created a new table.
2. Opened up the form in edit mode.
3. Hooked up the table, created in step #1 as in above, with this form.
4. Created a field/text box on this form.
5. Saved the form.
6. Used the delete key to delete the form, finally! :)
Yours sincerely & respectfully,
