[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 108572] Mail merge: embedded database isn' t properly discarded when working with MS Office starting documents

--- Comment #2 from Aron Budea <baron at caesar.elte.hu> ---
Other way to trigger this issue:

- Open the starting document (DOC or DOCX).
- Start mail merge wizard.
- Jump to step 3. Insert address block, open Select Address List... and after
clicking Add..., select the address list spreadsheet. Click OK in the dialog.
- Click Finish.
- Close document without saving, or save the merged documents, or even the
original, and close it.

=> Verify that in 'Tools -> Options...; LibreOffice Base -> Databases' that
there is a database that points to the supposedly embedded database in the
initial DOCX (the database connection can also be checked in Writer in View ->
Data Sources).

The leftover database entry can be manually deleted in the Options dialog
(could be useful for testing).


To reiterate, not embedding the database connection in the merged and saved
DOCX is fine (that'd be a separate enhancement), this issue is only about the
lingering entry in Registered Databases list.
