Hello Microsoft Access

A database contains tables, queries, forms, reports, pages, macros and modules. Each object has a purpose.

 

Where do you start? The best way to understand a database is to take apart an existing program. When you first launch Microsoft Access, you will be prompted to open an existing database or create your own.

 

This lesson includes a sample database. The sample database is a compressed (Zipped) file to make it smaller and easier to download. You will need to Unzip the file before you can work with the sample database.
