Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Reports Libre Base

Base is installed and for my financial database the only problem I have 
is reports. I followed the advice and installed the packages. This made 
no difference. When I open the data base and select a previously defined 
report the data bases crashes. If  I use the report creation facility 
when I select the report wizard again the data base crashes.

Does base log these failures and if so where can I look at it?

My fishing data base opens but I cannot open fofms , tables , queries etc.

This problem with Base has occurred in the last 12 months.

Any suggestions on what to do next will be gratefully received.
