I have searched the OpenOffice website to resolve my problem without success. I was running OpenOffice 4 Ver. 4.1.3 and Java Run time environment: jre-8u191-windows-x64. When I create a database file, I clicked on the database icon and I revived an error message stating I needed to install Java Run time environment. I reinstalled Java Run time environment, shut down the OpenOffice program and opened it again. Same problem! I downloaded the latest version of OpenOffice 4 Ver. 4.1.6 (although it installed Ver. 4.1.5).
I again tried to open and create a database file and had the same error problem! I then downloaded and installed Java Run time environment: jre-8u201-windows-x64. I shut down the OpenOffice program and opened it again. Same problem again! Why? I've done everything logically possible. Someone else must be having the same problem! PLEASE HELP!

Re: Java problem
OpenOffice on Windows is a 32 bit application, so needs a 32 bit Java, which you must manually download, install, then select in /tools /Options /OpenOffice /Java.

Re: Java problem
Perhaps you searched with the wrong keywords - a search for java installation would find among others this topic which has the solution to your issue.
