Hi :) Database programs are a front-end that read the data that is stored in a database back-end.
Trying to simplify things a bit so this is not entirely accurate ... With Writer, Calc etc you save a file in a certain format. Then a variety of programs can open that file. With a database that file is called a "database". It's all very confusing. The format the file is stored in is referred to as the databases "back-end" and the program you use to read the database is called the front-end. So, is the question "How do i use a different back-end to find duplicates in my back-end" or is it "How do i use some program other than LibreOffice to find duplicates in my back-end?". Obviously the answer to the 2nd question is best dealt with by documentation or forums or whatever that are set-up by whichever company's front-end you are using.
