- mssql2k / sybase 11.9.2 (or 10.9.2 I'm not sure)
- unixODBC 2.2.5

I did these step:
- LANG=C oowriter (just to force english)
- tools -> data sources
- new data source
- name: mao, database type: ODBC, data source url: local
- ODBC tab
- username: test, password required
- tables tab
- inserted my password (test)
- now I can see my tables
- queries tab
- new query button
- add my test table (dblib0014 in this case)
- dragged and dropper * column
- run query button
- I get table content
- close window (menu file)
- new query from queries tab
- "select * from dblib0014" query
- run query button
- I get table contents
- run sql command directly button
- select db_name()
- run query button
- all columns empty ??
- select db_name() as mao
- run query button
- I get results correctly now...
- select * from sysobjects
- run query button
- still ok
- exit oo
