I know things can change, but I used a local Libre Office installation
with this database accessed from the mapped drive, (Y:), exactly as I
have set it up.  Since the new laptop was necessitated by a hard drive
trashing, I can't look back to try to find any other possible culprits.

Sure - my bad description.  Along with the attachment reporting lack of
Java, I attached an overview of what I can currently see.  It looks fine
- just as I'd expect, but when I try to open the Display view, most used
as it contains description and images, I get the no-java report.

My bad - I should have remembered that.

OK - Windows 10 v.1909 64-bit.  Java is Oracle 8, v.251 - I think on the
old laptop I had openjava.  It is installed at C:\Program Files
(x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_251\.  Is this in fact a 32-bit version?  I know LO
says I must have a 64-bit version.

Anything else that would help?

Thanks
