Hi,

When trying to access mysql database with JDBC access I receive this error:

Error code: 1000

The specified driver could not be loaded!
Error code: -1

I also unable to connect database with ODBC.
I'm able to connect with phpmyadmin or with PremiumSoft Navicat but impossible
with open office :(

You have to add the mysql-connector-java-3.X.XX-bin.jar in the classpath of your
openoffice application. 
The file is available on the following site
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/3.1.html 

Read the first common problem named "OpenOffice.org cannot load/find my JDBC
driver" in the following location :
http://dba.openoffice.org/FAQ/index.html#jdbcdriver

After that, you should be able to access MySQL databases
