    Study Notes

    Access Objects

    • An Access database comprises various objects.
    • Examples include tables, forms, and macros.
    • A record is not an object; it's a single entry within a table.

    Data Storage Location

    • Data in an Access database resides within tables.

    Saving Edits

    • Changes to records are automatically saved.
    • Manually saving records is unnecessary during the session.

    Access Database Properties

    • Each field in an Access table has a defined data type.
    • All records in a table have the same fields.
    • Tables in a database do not necessarily contain the same number of records.
    • A primary key uniquely identifies a record within a table.

    Table Views

    • Datasheet view is used for adding, editing, and deleting records.
    • Design view outlines the table structure and properties.
    • Datasheet view does not provide more field properties than design view.
    • Changes to a record in datasheet view are automatically saved upon moving away from that record.

    Database Utilities

    • Back up and compact/repair utilities are used for database restoration in case of loss or damage.

    Selection Filters

    • A precise match on "Manager" in a selection filter selects a record containing the exact string “Manager”.

    Selection Filter Conditions

    • Possible filter conditions include "equal to," and "AND/OR" conditions.

    Database Creation

    • Access initially creates a blank database with at least one empty table.
    • Databases can be created from templates to incorporate pre-defined objects.
    • Database templates do not mean that the objects within them cannot be modified.

    Adding Predefined Tables

    • A database template is used to add predefined tables to an existing database.
