Is it really the exception message which tells the data source has an XStorable? I know that the Dev Guide talks about this - unfortunately, the guide is wrong (I plan to update it in this matter as soon as it's finally Wiki-fied.). Actually, there is a duality between a DataSource and a DatabaseDocument - each data source has exactly one database document associated with it, and vice versa. The XStorable interface exists at the document only, *not* at the data source. So, you need to - query your data source for the XDocumentDataSource interface - use the getDatabaseDocument method to retrieve the associated database document - query the document for the XStorable interface (side note: When you query the document for the XOfficeDatabaseDocument interface, you can use its getDataSource method to retrieve the data source - which is the same as the one with which you started.)
