# Data sources in LibreOffice

## Selecting the Address Book

In LibreOffice you can register different data sources. The contents of the data fields are then available to you for use in various fields and controls. Your system address book is such a data source.

LibreOffice templates and wizards use fields for the contents of the address book. When activated, the general fields in the templates are automatically replaced with the fields from the data source of your address book.

To select the address book that you want to use, choose Tools - Address Book Source.

## Opening a Data Source

- To open the data source view, press Command Ctrl+Shift+F4 in a text, spreadsheet or form document.

- To view the contents of a database, click the plus sign (+) in front of the name in the data source view.
