Hello,

I have tried to use HSQLDB as a data source for OOo.
It works very good and it's very easy and fast to enable the jdbc driver in 
OOo.
I think that HSQLDB is a very good alternative for OOo users who want a file 
based database. The possibility to create a new database directly within OOo 
is very appreciated. The HSQLDB data files can be easily exchange beetween 
users on windows or Linux. So it is very universal !

Thank you for this good job !

I've seen two things which don't work with OOo :

- I can't create an autoincrement field with OOo.

- I can't modify an existing table with OOo. In ALTER TABLE requests, OOo send 
ADD or DROP as HSQDB is waiting for ADD COLUMN or DROP COLUMN.

If those two problems where solved, HSQLDB would probably be the most 
interessant solution for standalone and file based database for OOo users.

Yves
