TYPES OF VIEWS IN LIBREOFFICE BASE
There are two types of views in LibreOffice Base—Table Data View and Table Design View. Let’s

Table Data View
Table Data View is the default view of the table. It shows all the fields and the records as entered
by the user. In this view, you can edit the contents of the table.

data types. You can add or delete a field name. The Table Design view is divided into two parts:
Field Grid Pane: It is used to define the field names and their data types.
Field Properties Pane: It is used to set the properties for the fields defined in the table.
