How To Create a LibreOffice Database In Windows 10

There’s two ways to create a database in LibreOffice (similar to Open Office, but LibreOffice is updated and worked on more frequently).

Create The Database

You can create a database using either of the following methods.

• From the LibreOffice start screen, choose "Base Database".
• From any application within LibreOffice such as "Calc" or "Base" choose "File" then "New" then "Database".

Both options can be seen in the image below.

Then select the "Create a new Database" radio button (see below) on the database wizard and click "Next".

Now choose where you’re going to save the database, in this instance, I’ve chosen the "imageDatabase" folder within my "YT Tutorials" folder.

And that’s it, you’ve created a simple LibreOffice base database and you’re good to go. I do recommend that you create a Split Database which is more robust and gives you more options, but if you just want to get a database created real quick this will do.
