ubuntu 12.04While fooling with mail merge, I decided to clean up my databases... I deleted them all and recreated the one I needed with a new name. That was a major mistake from which I was unable to recover, as now my fields don't match the database. At the same time, I added a few fields, one of which was a currency field. Currency comes with a comma as the thousands seperator. Which meant I could no longer use commas as my seperator in my CSV file. So, I saved it as a tab seperated file. So far, so good.
While converting all of the fields to use the new database, LO crashed (nothing new, it crashes about every 5 minutes). Because of these constant crashes I save each and every time I make just about any change whatsoever. I was nearly done with my changes.
The difference this time is that, it goes through the recovery process - and then crashes again. It's done this before, but typically a second restart is enough to get it past the problem, it recovers various files - fails to recover others that no longer exist - and then all is well and I continue my journey. This time, no amount of restarting LO will get it to stop crashing.
Any suggestions?
