OOo 2.1.0 on Windows XP crashes when I attempt to open an existing database.
Steps to reproduce:
- uncheck "Load OpenOffice.org During System Start-Up"
- "Exit Quickstarter"
- select OpenOffice.org Base from Start/Programs menu.
in Database Wizard:
- select Open an existing database file
- select a "Recently used" database from the drop-down list.
- click "Finish"
At this point I see a window appear for a fraction of a second, then disappear.
If I start Base again, I get the "OpenOffice.org Document Recovery" dialog.
After I proceed through the recovery, the OpenOffice.org Base window appears,
(possibly) allowing access to the database (depending on the database, see Issue
73093).

I can create a new "database", and I will get the same results when I attempt to
open that database using the above procedure.
"Database" creation procedure:
- select OpenOffice.org Base from Start/Programs menu.
in Database Wizard:
- select Connect to an existing database
- select MySQL
- click next
- select "connect using ODBC"
- click next
- type name of data source
- click next
- either enter user name or use name in ODBC, this doesn't make a difference
- click "test connection"
- click finish
- type name into Save As dialog
The OpenOffice.org Base window appears.

I first noticed this problem after I installed several Windows updates.
I no longer suspect the problem to be related to the Windows updates, as I had
been avoiding attempts at using Base due to errors since upgrading from 2.0.2 to
2.1.0.
Uninstalling/reinstalling OOo did not help.
