On Windows 2KPro I have:
  OOo                2.0.1
  Java               1.5.0_06
  MySQL              4.1.18 and 5.0.18
  MySQL Connector(J) 3.1.12
  HSQLDB             1.8.0.1

I can create and query databases and tables normally with both MySQL and HSQLDB using either their respective front-end applications or with a Java program using either MySQL Connector(J) or the HSQLDB jar.

MySQL
Whenever I use OOo Base to connect to any MySQL database using MySQL/JDBC or JDBC directly, OOo crashes. This happens when I either test the connection in the Database Wizard or hit the Table button in Base (after entering Login Name and Password).

HSQLDB
I can use OOo to open an externally created HSQLDB database and I can see any previously created tables, but Design View for any table does not list any fields. If I create a new table with fields, after I save, close, and re-open it, the fields are no longer displayed even though the table and fields are entered into the HSQLDB database file. When I open any table, I can see any previously created rows, but I cannot enter any new rows or edit any fields. The Form Wizard for any table displays the error "The field names from table <table name> could not be retrieved".

I do not see any other messages here about these problems, and everything else about both these databases, JDBC, and OOo works just fine. Can anyone give me an ideas as to what is going wrong here?
