New Perspectives on Microsoft Access 2013 10
• A CSV (comma-separated values) file is a text file in which commas separate values, and each line is a record containing the same number of values in the same positions– This is a common format for representing data in a table
and is used by spreadsheet applications such as Excel as well as database applications

Analyzing a Table with the Table Analyzer– The Table Analyzer analyzes a single table and, if
necessary, splits it into two or more tables that are in third normal form
– The Table Analyzer also looks for redundant data in the table and removes redundant fields from the table and then places them in new tables

XPXPXPUsing XML
New Perspectives on Microsoft Access 2013 17
• XML (Extensible Markup Language) is a programming language that is similar in format to HTML, but is more customizable and is suited to the exchange of data between different programs
• Unlike HTML, which uses a fixed set of tags to describe the appearance of a web page, developers can customize XML to describe the data it contains and how that data should be structured

• Saving and Running Import Specifications– If you need to repeat the same import procedure many
times, you can save the steps for the procedure and expedite future imports by running the saved import steps without using a wizard

XPXPXPIntegrating Access with Other Programs
New Perspectives on Microsoft Access 2013 33
• When you integrate information between programs, the program containing the original information, or object, is called the source program, and the program in which you place the information created by the source program is called the destination program
• Access offers three ways for you to integrate objects created by other programs– Importing - When you import an object, you include the
contents of a file in a new table or append it to an existing table, or you include the contents of the file in a form, report, or field

– Embedding - When you embed an object in a form, report, or field, you preserve its connection to the source program, which enables you to edit the object. However, any changes you make to the object are reflected only in the form, report, or field in which it is embedded; the changes do not affect the original object in the file from which it was embedded
– Linking - When you link an object to a form, report, or field, you include a connection in the destination program to the original file maintained by the source program; you do not store data from the file in the destination program. Any changes you make to the original file using the source program are reflected in the linked file version in the destination program

XPXPXPUsing Templates and Application Parts
New Perspectives on Microsoft Access 2013 40
• A template is a predefined database that can include tables, relationships, queries, forms, reports, and other database objects– You can create your own template from an existing database file or
choose from a list of predefined templates– In addition to creating a standard template, you can also create an
application part, which is a specialized template that can be imported into an existing database
– A standard template would be used to create a new database file– An application part is used when you already have a database file that
you’re working with, and would like to include the content from an application part in your existing database
