Description Martin Thomas 2014-09-15 07:29:05 UTC 
Problem description: File>New>Labels doesn't recognise any tables in the database, so can't be used to create labels.

Steps to reproduce:
1. File>New>Labels, choose Database, try to choose Table.

Current behavior: As above.

Expected behavior: Tables and Queries displayed as options.

Following on https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83853 we freshly installed up-to-date LibreOffice, 4.3.1.2, on a Mac running OS 10.8.5 in our office. It behaves as above.

              
Operating System: Mac OS X
Version: 4.3.1.2 release

Hi Martin,

Thanks for reporting. I do not see the problem on Ubuntu, so Mac OS only?

Couldn't test it, because I can't create any label.

When I search through the bugs many of the bugs for labels are connected to the component "Writer", not "Database". You start File>New>Labels and want to get a writer-document. So it could be this bug-description isn't read from the person, who could fix bugs of the label-wizard.

On MacOs 10.9.5 with LO 4.3.1.2, I don't reproduce this.
Indeed, I can see the tables from Bibliography database.

Did you try with Bibliography database or a specific registered one? If last case, could you give details about it? (which kind of database for example)

Adding self to CC if not already on
Comment 5 Julien Nabet 2015-01-14 21:43:26 UTC 
No feedback since 3 months, I put it to WFM.

Martin: don't hesitate to reopen this tracker if you can reproduce this with last stable LO version 4.3.5. In this case, please provide additional information requested in my last comment.
