Fernand,

I have restored a backup from a month ago. Since December was a relatively slow month, not too much has been lost.

Thanks much, though, for confirming that this file is of no use.

Scott ,

no, because it is no longer a zip archive, were you normaly can find a
archive with the "data" file.

i supose the original odb is "overwritten" by a other file ?

open the file with a text-editor, you wil find some meta-data en
scrambled information

hopes you find somewhere a backup :-)

Fernand,

Thanks for the answer, although I admit I'm seriously puzzled by that.
The file has been in use for a couple years and at least originally
was a ODB. Most recently being opened and used without problem in LO
3.4.x on a weekly basis.

Any ideas on how to recover at least the table data from the file?

Scott ,

this is not a odb file , its comming from a older oo version (1.2) could
be a swx, sxc, sxd, but as far as i know there was no database for 1.2
When I try to open this file: http://db.tt/CN65sXtn
I am presented with the Filter Selection dialog, from which I choose
ODF database.
I next get a 'General Error'.
Clicking on 'Tables' gives:
The connection to the data source "Books' could not be established.
The driver class " could not be loaded.
Clicking More gives three errors
The connection to the data source "Books' could not be established.
Error code: 1000 The driver class '' could not be loaded.
SQL Status: HY000 The driver class '' could not be loaded.

and the file remains inaccessible.

One day the file worked and saved without problem. The next day it
does not open on any machine.

A similar database opens without problem.

Is there a way to recover this file?
