Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: LibreOffice Base and SQLite

Many thanks to Alex for putting me on the right track.

I have also found the information at:
https://crcok.wordpress.com/2014/10/24/using-sqlite-database-with-openoffice-org/


I seemed to have got into a twist with the installation of ODBC and
multiple odbcinst.ini and odbc.ini files in my system.

The possible use of Kexi as a possible simple database system has also been
hightlighted.

cheers

Mike
