Hi Perrti,
From this long and very interesting thread and some other
discussions on this mailing list too, together with my own recent
experiences, there is only one main conclusion to draw:
There is no real future forLibO's Base module, perhaps not for the

Hi Ian,
The easy version is :-
1) Open your database with the HSQLDB embedded data.
2) In a separate window, create a new database with any other kind of

Sorry, I should have been more precise :
