Introduction

Modern computer-based systems, including most accounting systems, have a database

System. An accounts receivable program, for example, frequently stores its information

in a special system known as a database. The information is subsequently extracted,

summarized, and displayed by a program especially adept at storing, organizing, and

Quickly retrieving facts that are stored in a database. Such systems are known as database

Management systems.

What Is Microsoft Office Access?

You will study and use one such database management system written for microcomputer

, called Microsoft Office Access. Once you learn the fundamentals of Microsoft Office

Access, you will be able to create your own accounting systems with this powerful data-

base system. (In this textbook, we usually use the shorthand term Access rather than

longer term Microsoft Office Access.)

A database is a collection of information that's related. Access allows you to

manage your information in one database file. Within Access there are four

major areas: Tables, Queries, Forms and Reports

Tables store your data in your database

Queries ask questions about information stored in your tables

Forms allow you to view data stored in your tables

Reports allow you to print data based on queries/tables that you have

Created.

Setting a Primary Key

The Primary Key is the unique identifier for each record in a table. Access will

not allow duplicate entries in a Primary Key field. By default, Access sets the first

field in the table as the Primary Key field. An example of a Primary Key would be

the roll number of each student. This is something unique about you and should

not be duplicated.

To Set a Primary Key:

1) Switch to table design

2) Position your cursor in the field you wish to set as the Primary Key

3) Click the Primary Key button on the Ribbon

Then press ctrl+s to save it.

Entering Data in a Table

Once you have entered the fields and set the data types it is now time to enter

the records in a table.

To Enter Data in a Table:

1) Make sure you are in Datasheet View

2) Enter the data into the table by pressing the tab key to move from one cell

to another

3) When you have completed the record (row), press Enter
