It is, but only for programmes that are not "64 bit ready". The
programmers have to recompile to check and fix errors.

Really? Sounds interesting, do you have any measure?

If the software is prepared for 64 bit mode, it should.

For that server version you're better of using Connector/J3 or
MyODBC3.5. With the old mm.gjt...-stuff you'll lose functionality.

Yes, sorry. In 2.0 it is integrated where you have been already. Ti's in
"Tools-Options-OpenOffice.org-Java" where you set the classpath. The old
jvmsetup is a tool for selecting the JDK/JVM to use.

Good Luck,
