*I really do not care what format it is in as long as it does the job
and when I am done with the file I save it back to the same format it
was in ! !*
*As it is not my file and Thomas is a windoes user person NOT a computer
literate person and would scream if he had to do any thinking about how
to open it !
*
*I keep beating on his head to change over but he likes fighting with
windoes and removing bots and malware plus doing the checking for
virus's so the file has to be the same format to give it back to him to
jack with it and screw it up as per normal . .
It is why I keep copies of the files all over the place like a thumb
drive ( flash drive ) and on the hard drive in a folder called win-crap
as I know Thomas will mess it up some where some place just as sure as
the sun comes up !

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.

Tom :)
