--- Comment #10 from Gerhard Weydt <gerhard.weydt at t-online.de> ---
I should perhaps give some information about this table.
It is a single table isolated from a database because it's the one that caused
trouble. The table describes the relation between the tables Mitglied and Jahr,
hence its name. The relation is n:m, id is the primary key of Mitglied and Jahr
is primary key of table Jahr. I needed a unique key consisting of these two
fields, and as HSQLDB always wants a primary key, I chose not to create an
additional column, but define this unique index as the primary key.
In fact a unique index would have been sufficient. I tried to create a similar
table in 6.1 with Firebird, with a unique index, which is explicitly allowed as
one of the two ways to guarantee uniqueness, but the table isn't editable in
Base. Now this could be the fault of Base and not of Firebird, because it's the
same reaction as with a HSQLDB table without primary key. I will do some more
testing and will probably enter that as another bug report, as it's not
connected with migration.
