Mark,
Don't believe everything you read. Base is just like MS Access. It has a
built-in database engine (like Access), you can connect to and

Since Base is not a database program, the first thing to know would be the
actual database to be used. An embedded HSQLDB is only one option, good
enough for simple demos and drafts but you don't really want to develop
