Introduction to Access 2003

When you first open a database in Access, the database window displays. From the database window, you can create new database objects or work with existing database objects, entering and manipulating the information in your database.

Database objects include:

• Tables — contain rows and columns of information.
• Queries — display information in a datasheet based on criteria you set.
• Forms — allow you to enter data easily.
• Reports — present the data in print format.
• Data Access Pages — allow the data to be presented on the Web.
