Happy New Year All, |

I hope you all had a happy holiday. Oddly enough, this e-mail isn't to |
4 |
request assistance although I did post this problem quite a while back |
5 |
and was not able to resolve it. |

Ever since I got my new desktop computer slightly over a year ago, I |
8 |
have been trying to set up a connection in Open Office Base to a MySQL |
9 |
data base. I couldn't get it working with ODBC. I had this working on |
10 |
my laptop, so it wasn't a huge issue not to have it on my desktop, but |
11 |
hey, I'm stubborn so, periodically, when I did a sync to my computer, I |
12 |
would try again. Yesterday, I decided to try it using JDBC. |
13 |
Admittedly, I had some issues, but googled and finally got all things |
14 |
resolved so I now have the connection set up in OO Base. I also learned |
15 |
a few things so perhaps now I could even get the ODBC connection working |
16 |
if I wanted to. |

I'm not a "techy", just what you might call a "power user". Just goes |
19 |
to show you that even an old bat like me can run Linux which is why I |
20 |
will never believe that Linux is too hard to learn .... for some maybe |
21 |
so, but if you have the desire to learn, you can do it, IMHO! :-) |

|
23 |
Anyway, that's all I have to say. |
