            Bug ID: 112260
           Summary: Making new labels from a database fails if there is a
                    dash in the database file name
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.3.1.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: peter.blaiklock at gmail.com

When attempting to print labels from a Writer document containing address
database fields I got the following error message:

The data source "partial_file_name" was not found. The connection to the data
source could not be established. Please check the connection settings.

The file name in question should have been "partial_file_name-remainder.odb".
It is a database file created from a spreadsheet of addresses. Making a new
database file from the same spreadsheet and giving it a name with no dashes
fixed the problem.

The bug should be reproduceable by making a spreadsheet with a few addresses
(and a label row on top), creating a new database from that spreadsheet with a
dash in the file name, and making new labels from that database. Try to print
the resulting .odt file, clicking on "Yes" when it asks if you want to print a
form letter. This should produce the above error message.
