RE: access

Dear James

Thanks for attending Access Intro.

Access is a database application Package. A Database is structured collection of data where the user can quickly and efficiently select the desired information. You can consider this as an electronic filing cabinet.

A typical database has one or more Tables, Queries, Forms and Reports. These are known as objects of a database.

Hope this helps!!

Access tip:

Choosing data types in Access

Not sure which data type to use for your Access fields? Here are some guidelines to help you choose a data type to assign to a field.

- The Text data type can accept up to 255 characters. For information that will be recorded in paragraphs, use Memo.

- Also use Text for numbers that aren't going to be used in calculations, e.g. phone numbers.

- Use the Currency data type for monetary amounts.

- Use Date/Time for dates.

- Most other numbers can use the Number data type, but the Field Size property may have to be altered.

- For fields that have only two alternatives (yes, no) use Yes/No data type. If there is likely to be a third entry option (e.g. maybe or don't know) use Text instead.
