Microsoft Access / Data Manipulation So far, to create a query we have learned to use either the Query Wizard or the Design View of a query. In both cases, we were selecting fields and adding them to the query. This concept of building a query is based on the Structured Query Language abbreviated SQL. In fact, all queries are based on SQL and this language is used by most database development environments, including Microsoft Access. Site: www.functionx.com

Microsoft Access / Forms and Reports As we saw in previous lessons, fields are created on a table, then they can be added to a query. Based on the way Microsoft Access deals with fields, a field on a table cannot be created as a combination of other fields, as if it were an expression . Site: www.functionx.com

Microsoft Access / Data Manipulation We have used the concept of a query so far only to create a list of fields that would be considered for a set of records. We also mentioned that a query in Microsoft Access is simply a means of visually representing data. Indeed, a query is based on a SQL statement. As SQL is its own, fully functional language, we can use it to perform far more operations than to only select columns for a query. Site: www.functionx.com

Microsoft Access / Excel and Charts A chart created using the New Form dialog box is positioned on a form. As such, the form acts as its parent. The chart can only fit inside of the form. Based on this, you can enlarge a form to make available more space for the chart. After enlarging and/or heightening a form, you can increase the side of the chart to have a bigger picture and better appreciate a chart. Site: www.functionx.com

Microsoft Access / Excel and Charts A chart is a technique of displaying data using pictures and graphical representations instead of numbers or simple words. It works by drawing figures that would represent numbers, giving a dramatic effect to the information presented. Good created and formatted charts can help people and businesses make decisions based on the impact that their images provide to the users. Site: www.functionx.com

Microsoft Access / Data Manipulation In everyday life, an object is an entity that displays or provides some characteristics that set it apart. These characteristics are used to describe the object. For example, an object called Car has such characteristics as its make, model, color, year made, price, and mileage, etc. When put together, these aspects can be used to get good knowledge of what the object looks like and perhaps how it functions. The same concept is used in computer programming, in database development, and in Microsoft Access. Site: www.functionx.com

Microsoft Access / Functions and Expressions Microsoft Access and Microsoft Visual Basic are not case-sensitive. Therefore, any word we are going to use that involves a field, its name, and new words we will introduce in this section, whether written in uppercase, lowercase or a mix, as long as it is the same word, represents the same thing. Based on this, the words TRUE, True and true, as related to Microsoft Access, represent the same word. In the same way, if the words NULL, Null, and null are used in an expression, they represent the same thing. Site: www.functionx.com
