Hi Drew

Thanks for the reply.

I originally developed my DB in OO about 6 years back and have been 
using it in OO since then. I've always used the embedded engine. When LO 
'forked' away from OO I tried that but could never get my Database to 
run - it would just crash Base whereas it was still working in OO. As 
each version of LO came out I gave it another try always with the same 
results. About a month or two back with some suggestions from the Forum 
I moved my DB to LO and re-developed my front-end Form and it worked!! 
But I ran into another problem which escapes me right now so moved back 
to OO.

With my latest upgrade to Mint 12 KDE I had a problem that LO would not 
even start. So I installed OO again and it ran OK BUT I had problems 
with it not saving data. So I removed OO and re-installed LO (from the 
LO WebSite) and this is where I sit now with the "No SDBC driver found" 
error.

I have no other DB to try but yesterday I found an old backup of my 
Database from about a year ago and tried to open that and got the same 
SDBC error. I can however create a new database in LO with no problems. 
My file is 640Mb in size and if I look at it with an un-zip program I 
can "see" all the contents.

Yes - I am on skype - 'ianzs6cdx' (But only Keyboard-to-Keyboard as I 
have not had a chance to get my microphone working in Mint 12 yet!!)

Thanks a lot.
