I’m trying to create mail merged labels in Libre Office.
The file-new-labels dialogue links to a database I previously used and I can’t seem to browse to an updated one I want to use instead.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

As a guide
Basically you
Choose File - New - Labels to open the Labels dialog.
On the Labels tab page, select the format of the label sheets you want to print on.
Choose the database and table from which to get the data. *
at this point you should be able to choose a different database to collect from, if not can you get to that point and print your screen then send a copy so I can see the same as you to guide you next.
Hi Paul
Many thanks for the reply.
After further research, I discovered the solution myself. It is necessary to register the database/spreadsheet file you want to use before it will appear in the list of options. This can be achieved under File/Wizards/Address Data Source. Once you have followed through the stages, your data source will appear on the drop down list. It’s worth noting that you can see (and edit) your list of saved data sources form View/Data sources.
Bravo thanks for letting me know
