what is a database?

RE: database

Charise,

A database is a structured collection of records (or information) that's stored in a computer. A program can consult it to answer queries. The records retrieved in answer to queries become information that could be used to make business decisions.

The computer program used to manage and query a database is sometimes known as a database management system (DBMS). One example of a DBMS computer program is Microsoft Access.

Regards, Rich


 

Access tip:

Switchboard Startup

An option when you open your Access database that contains all of you tables, forms and queries is only the switchboard is displayed.

To achieve this, select Tools click on Startup. On the right hand side of the Startup screen you are able to select which form you want to open when you open you Access Database. Once you have selected this, there is a check box just below that says "Display Database Window", you need to uncheck this option. Then click ok.

Then when you close you Access database and re open it, the database should open with just the switchboard being shown
