Dear Brian(and others who helped),
I have been using Java SE V1.4.2_03 - which I downloaded as I thought
it was a 32 bit version. I will download the one you suggested (ie.
Jre8u161-windows-i586,exe), if you think it will solve the problem, but
I suspect it won't. I have now tried starting Office Base totally from
scratch - pretending that I am starting a new database and I then go
straight to Tools, options, Java and I get exactly the same problem. I
wish I could show you a screen dump, but it says "The connection to the
data source "New database2" could not be established. No Java
installation could be found. Please check....".
When I try my existing database (which I admit was originally an Access
database) and I go to Tools, options, Java, it will not populate it and
the "Use a Jave runtime environment" is ticked. Underneath that it says
"Java runtime environment (JRE) already installed".
This is driving me crazy as I cannot use the database that I have
created - neither print it, or export it to another system! I have
uninstalled and installed plenty of versions of Java to fix the problem.
Best wishes,
Juliet
