Hi Siegfried,This is a bit confusing. Sun decided to distribute Apache Derby and call it JavaDB. The bits you download from the JavaDB site and the bits you get already installed when you install Sun's Java SE 6 JDK and the bits you can download from the Apache Derby site are the same (modulo release levels and documentation). [Also, Sun will offer support for the JavaDB bits but not the Apache Derby bits.]

Could you tell me more about javaDB? I did a google search and found http://developers.sun.com/javadb/ and I see a download button.Is it the same as the apache derby that I already downloaded and installed?
yes.
It also says "Now in Java 6". Since I have java 6 installed, do I have itinstalled twice?
yes.
When I tried to figure out how to start the server process for Java DB (I figured there must be a server process unlike Microsoft Access) I clicked on the quick start link and discovered I'm back to apache derby which I alreadyhave installed (quite seperately from Java 6) and running.
If you're happy with the Apache Derby installation then there is no need to install or use the JavaDB either from download or from Java SE 6 JDK.
