Registering and Deleting a Database

Data from any database file can be registered to the installed instance of LibreOfficeDev. To register means to tell LibreOfficeDev where the data is located, how it is organized, how to get that data, and more. Once the database is registered, you can use the menu command View - Data source to access the data records from your text documents and spreadsheets.

To register an existing database file:

  1. Choose - LibreOfficeDev Base - Databases.

  2. Click \<emph\>Add\</emph\> and select the database file.

To remove a registered database from LibreOfficeDev

  1. Choose - LibreOfficeDev Base - Databases.

  2. Select the database file and click \<emph\>Delete\</emph\>.
