--- Comment #1 from Alex Thurgood <iplaw67 at tuta.io> ---
Not really sure what you are attempting here or what you are reporting as a
bug.

dBase is not MDB.

An MDB file extension is an Access database, not a dBase database.

LibreOffice supports either opening a dBase3 file, or an Access MDB (under
certain conditions), but not a dBase file that is somehow pretending to be an
Access file.


If you want to use a MDB file as the datasource, you need the appropriate
Microsoft driver and setup.

>From the description you have provided, and the error message, it sounds like
you are trying to set up a connection to a Microsoft Access file having a MDB
file extension.

We would also need to know which version of Access was used to produce the
Access file.

Please provide us with further information, including your operating system
version.
