Hi,

when trying to use bibus (http://bibus-biblio.sf.net) with OOo
native interface (i.e., setting up bibus database as an external
bibliographic source via ODBC) I cannot change OOo to read data
from particular table in the database, but OOo always picks the
alphabetically first table from the database (which is not the
correct one in the bibus case), even though all databases
(including the one OOo picked up) where checked off in
Tools/Filter Tables of OOBase, and even though I tried to use the
roll down button in the Bibliographic databases manager.
Unfortunately, that makes bibliographic support in OOo unusable
for me and thus (I am a PhD student writing my thesis) it makes
OOo as such unusable, so I have to stick with LyX for time being.

BTW, it doesn't matter whether the ODBC connection is set up from
SQLite (which has somehow unreliable ODBC driver, true) or from
MySQL (which should be OK).

See http://www.ceplovi.cz/matej/tmp/ooo-biblio/bibquery.png for
illustration of the incorrect behavior of OOo, and
http://www.ceplovi.cz/matej/tmp/ooo-biblio/oobase.png to show
that OOBase can read the database correctly.

Any workaround?
