FWIW, I use 4.1.1 (dev build, UK English) and Java 8 update 31. I have not 
experienced any problems with the Java or with the application. I’m also 
running Yosemite 10.3.3, a dev build. That said, nearly all of my use of 
OpenOffice is in text, presentation, Calc, not Base, at least not in any 
interesting way.

I can walk through the issues described and see what happens….
