Thanks for the reply I have also found a temporary solution as follows Download the version 22 bin file from jre using the links at this site or use the file stored in /var/cache/apt/archive. Remove version 24 using synaptic restart the machine, remove the network connection, manually install version 22 from the bin file, restart the machine, open synaptic and lock the 2 entries for version 22 from further changes. Reconnect to the network and make 22 the active jre in openoffice via tools, options. The data base now performs very well again. David
