I have no simple idea to enhance it.
What do you think about my idea to gray-out those entries where the data is
(temporarily) not available?
By data, you mean the actual data, not the .odb file. How do you determine
that? You can't just try to connect:
- can take network requests, time (large list), consume client licence spot on
SQL server, ...
- you may be missing a password; you will not ask the password of all
entries(!). How will you reliably determine if the connection failed
You want to limit it to non-network requests? You will still need to open each
.odb file, see what it connects to (embedded data? network database? another
data file?) and make a decision. Also not good for performance, a file can also
be on a slow NAS / network filesystem over a VPN over slow Internet, ...
If you mean checking whether the .odb file is reachable, that can work, and I
would not oppose the patch. Not sure users will understand the difference
between the odb and the data, but <shrug>
