            Bug ID: 128997
           Summary: Bibliography database must be re-assigned to all
                    columns; Use of a query is not possible.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.3.3.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: saxofon at gmx.de

Description:
Database biblio: When opening the tools-bibliography_database menu, this error
message appears: The following column names could not be assigned... then I
have to reassign all columns. Problem is worse in other than english languages,
hardly anybody knows the assignment of the columns.

Big problem: you must use a table for the database, unfortunately it's not
possible to use a query, so you cannot take a relational database for the job.
Best would be a relational database with at least 2 tables, one for the medium
(books, magazines etc.) and the other for the articles, authors... Then a query
should assemble the data for the biblio-format.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. tools-bibliography_database menu
2.
3.

Actual Results:
The following column names could not be assigned:
Type
Publication type
Organization
Institution
Type of report
Do you want to edit the column arrangement?

Expected Results:
All columns should be assigned automatically


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
