I have used OpenOffice for documents and spreadsheets for a while. Now I want to start playing with a Database. The problem is when I try to create a new one I get the following error To open “soffice” you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime. I currently have Java 8 update 111 installed. In my OpenOffice preferences in the Java section I have Use a Java runtime environment checked. The version shows up as 1.8.0_111. From what I read I can not have both version 6 and version 8 installed at the same time. Also after the message telling me to install version 6 openoffice crashes?
