Description intersol 2007-02-08 13:09:26 UTC 
In the "Select Data Source" dialog the field order is wrong.
Current order: Database, Data source, Type
Correct order: Database, Type, Data source.
Reason: Changing Type will change Data source and all users are required to
complete fields in order 1, 3, 2 instead of 1, 2, 3.

I think this is a UI design bug.

intersol,
please specify where you see that dialog.

Hi,

Prio is mutch to high, lowered to P4 and not a defect as you can type a SQL
Statement directly into the second field or the name of an existing query. But
as enhancement this may be valuable. Set the flags and reassign.

BTW it's Data-Datapilot-Start-Datasource registered in OpenOffice.org- Ok

to get the mentioned dialog.
