Description Roman Kuznetsov 2022-04-10 16:33:23 UTC 
Description:
Database Wizard UI looks inconsistent when you select Writer document item in Connect to an existing database list:

1. Step 2 in this case became "Set up Writer document or Spreadsheet connection" - why the "Spreadsheet" word here?
2. Heading of the Step 2 says us "Set up a connection to spreadsheet" - of course it should be "Set up a connection to Writer document"
3. Text tip on the Step 2 is "Click 'Browse...' to select a LibreOffice spreadsheet or Microsift Excel workbook. LibreOffice will open this file in read-ony mode" - and it should be "Click 'Browse...' to select a LibreOffice Writer document with a table. LibreOffice will open this file in read-ony mode".

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open LibreOffice
2. Select menu File->New->Database
3. Select a Connect to an existing database radiobutton
4. Click on the drop-down list below and select Writer document there
5. Look at the Description above

Actual Results:
Database Wizard UI looks inconsistent when you select Writer document item in Connect to an existing database list

Expected Results:

Could confirm the buggy behavior. Thought this has already been reported but can't find it.

See https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=179116 . There is a screenshot of this problem at the bottom of the page …

This is the same behavior in older versions like LO 6.4.7.2 here on OpenSUSE 15.3 64bit rpm Linux. Think it had never been worked right.

In dbaccess/source/ui/dlg/DBSetupConnectionPages.cxx the function OSpreadSheetConnectionPageSetup() uses the string STR_SPREADSHEET_HEADERTEXT. Looks like the internal function name is misleading itself. Suggest to split PAGE_DBSETUPWIZARD_DOCUMENT_OR_SPREADSHEET in dbaccess/source/ui/dlg/dbwizsetup.cxx - and name the page accordingly.
