A template is a predefined layout that contains sample content, themes, colours, font styles, background styles,
etc., and gives an initial foundation to build a document. Writer provides a variety of predefined templates.
Using a template, we can create our own document quickly and easily.

Templates candy created in the following two ways:

 Using a document
 Using a wizard

Using a wizard
In libereoffice, Writer, wizards allow us to create templates for letters faxes and agendas. OpenOffice writer
additionally provides wizards to create templates for presentations and web pages also.

To create a template using a wizard:

 Click on a FILE tab -> Wizards -> Choose the type (as show in the figure below).

Program -5 - There are four sheets with same structure quarterly results of sales of a
stationery shop. Write the steps to consolidate the all four sheet into new sheet named
Yearly Sales to find the total sales.

Consolidating data means combining data from different sources into one place. For example, we have sales
data of four quarter in four different worksheets. In such a case to analyse data, we need to collect everything
into one worksheet. It will become a tedious and tiresome task, if we combine it manually using the traditional
way of copy and pasting.

Calc provides the Consolidate feature that allows us to collect the data with minimal efforts. It selects the
contents of cells from several worksheets and maintains the collected data in a master worksheet.

To sum up the data of all the worksheets, consolidate them by following these steps:

 Open a workbook in Calc and enter the data of First Quarter sale of year Sheet1 (Quarter-1), Second
Quarter in Sheet2 (Quarter-2), Third Quarter in Sheeet3 (Quarter-3) and Fourth Quarter in Sheet4
(Quarter-4).
 Click on the Sheet5 tab and rename it as consolidate data.
 Enter the heading and names of stationery in Sheet5 as show in the figure.
Figure: Entered Data in sheet5

 On sheet5, click on Data menu and select the Consolidate option.


 The Consolidate dialog box appears. s. Here in the Function drop-down list, select a function.
function For example,
to get the sum of the data available on all the worksheets, select the sum function.
 Click inside the Source data range text boxbox. Then, go to the sheet1(Quarter-1), and drag the mouse to
select the first source data range on the sheet as show in the figure.

As name suggests, the Subtotals feature of Calc is used for generating subtotals. It helps us to manage, analyse,
and extract specific information from rows of related data. It is basically used to get the summarized data. It is
good in practice to use the sorted data while applying the Subtotals command to it.

To obtain the Subtotal sales and total sales follows these steps:

Program -10 - Write the steps to create a table using table Wizard.
LibreOffice Base provides the Table Wizard, which is designed to start with the basic structure of table. Later,
we can modify the structure of the table as per your requirement.

Suppose, we have create a database file with the name is CBSE. In CBSE database, to create a table, click on
Use Wizard to Create Table option in the Database Task Pane.

The Table Wizard opens. Now, follow these steps:

STEP 1: SELECT FIELDS

In the first step, we can select a category and field for the table.

 There are two categories: Business and Personal. Choose a category. For example, Business as shown in
the Figure.
