Data base and One Drive Issue

[LindaPro]

I created a database and unregistered it, deleted it and started over. When I create the new data base, it appears to be picking up the correct .ods file, but when I open it, the file contains the original data. It appeared to be picking up files from one drive and I thought I had a syncing problem. I deleted from one drive and recreated the data base. I am beyond frustrated with not understanding where the old data is coming from. Would someone please help me figure out why I can’t create a new database with new tables?

Thanks for your help.

When you create a new Base document “from spreadsheet”, nothing will be converted nor copied. Your data remain in the spreadsheet and nowhere else. The database just interpretes the used areas of each sheet as if if these data were database tables even if these areas are not meant to be anything like a list. You can hide inadequate pseudo-tables via menu:Tools>Filter Tables.
This is good enough for mail merge and other data transfer but it is not even close to a true database.

You are correct. I was using this to print name cards and not as a real database. I think my problem had to do with syncing and One Drive. I deleted all the files on my PC and One Drive and started over. I have accomplished what I set out to do. Thanks for your help.
