Hi Brian,

okay, that's intended, since those settings do not make much sense for
embedded HSQL.

To verify whether your OOo uses the shipped version of HSQLDB, or
conflicts with another version in your system, see
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/HSQLDB:Tips_and_Tricks#How_to_know_the_version_of_the_embedded_HSQLDB.3F
for how to obtain the version. You should get 1.8.0 resp. 1.8.0.4 or
1.8.0.<some 4 digits>. Everything below means there's another HSQLDB
installation in your system, which is probably pointed to in your
CLASSPATH environment variable, and thus used by OOo. In this case, try
removing it from your CLASSPATH before starting OOo.
Ciao
Frank
