I installed Jaybird 1.5.6 for JRE 1.4, although I am using JRE 1.5, and the database is now accessible!

If I have understood you correctly, you changed Jaybird to be JDBC 3.0 compliant, and that uncovered a bug in the way OpenOffice works. While you did the correct thing in improving compliance, this makes Jaybird 2.0 unusable with OO. Perhaps one could add a warning to that effect on the firebirdsql.org site, so that innocent downloaders would know to take the older version of Jaybird?

Thanks for your help!
