| In this chapter, you got to know the Database window and the objects it contains. An Access database can contain many objects, and all these objects are stored in a single file. The Database window in Access lets you view and manipulate Access objects. You also learned the following: -
Table objects hold your raw data. -
Query objects provide answers to questions about the data. -
Forms provide a data-entry and display interface. -
Reports enable you to make attractive printed versions of your data. -
Pages help you publish your data to the Web. -
Macros and modules enable advanced programming operations in a database. -
Groups in the Database window let you create subsets of your objects for easy reference. -
Desktop shortcuts let you launch Access and open a particular object, such as a form or a report, directly from the Windows desktop. |
