An ODBC connection (32 bit) was used in this case.
Interestingly I can create new tables and save them.
Also I could connect to SQL Server 2012 using the ODBC connection. The details for this are here:

The connection steps I took connecting to SQL Anywhere 16 are here:

To troubleshoot I reversed the process. Created a table in OpenOffice 4.0 while connected to SQL Anywhere 16 via ODBC and refreshed the data. I could open this table in Sybase Central and view its contents. However, I failed to open the table I created in OpenOffice 4.0 to view contents. Details are here:

I am sorry. I have fixed the last link.---10/11/2013
While ODBC connection did not work as expected, I finally tried an ADO connection and this works well. Follow this link here for details:
