As "just" a user, I know nothing about Java other than that I often seem to
have problems with it. I've learned not to update it unless my current
system doesn't work with the version I have.
My previous employer always kept a working version on disk. Sometimes our
computers automatically updated Java to a newer version, only to result in
problems. At those times, out IT folks would come around with their disk and
reinstall the older version.
Not long ago, I upgraded to Java 7, but I started experiencing some
problems. I don't recall what the problems were, nor could I state for
certain that Java was my problem. But, I deleted it and reinstalled Java 6,
and all worked well.

Could you please point me to bug reports at bugs.sun.com or OpenJDK ?
I have seen reports about AOO "not finding" the JRE but never about Java
code in AOO that works in Java6 but not in Java 7. If so, this is an
important compatibility regression that I´m not sure the JDK / OpenJDK
guys
are aware of.

Might be a duplicate but I could not find the original issue which is
well known since many years.

Andreas et al,
Sun Bug ID #7024514 is similar, submitted on March 4, 2011 with a
priority of 4-Low when I last printed it on March 6, 2012. The only
workaround on it was to use JRE 6u22. http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/
Note that I am using Slackware Linux 12.2 (K2.6.27), LibreOffice 3.5.7
with JRE 6u33, mysql 5.0.67 and mysql-connector-java 5.0.7 and Base runs
at a reasonable speed - even Oracle Report Builder 1.2.1 runs much
better than in LO 3.5.3, although it still bogs down on larger database
tables (>4000 records and growing, > 500 pages of report), but that may
be expected.
