Hi :) The HSqlDb version that is embedded in Base is a bit poor compared to using the proper version of HSqlDb and then use that as a back end with Base as the front-end. I think the result is that it looks like 2 files but works a LOT better. It's just the implementation inside Base is less than great.
There are other back-ends that might be better if you are going for a larger database but HSqlDb is quite good and very fast if the database is going to be fairly small. For example Postgresql or MariaDb/MySql might be great for a large database but not so great for a simple address book or something.

Its there by default. Sorry don't >> follow this. http://hsqldb.org is a database engine in Java. My receipt is about moving an embedded HSQLDB v1.8 out of the Base jail so it can be used as a fully functional multi-user db in server mode or in cached mode (single user on local machine but fully functional and independent of the frontend). Current HSQLDB version is 2.5. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
