Databases

Databases

1. Query

   • Must specify what fields and other information is to be included. Also enable totalling options if needed
   • Used to search a database
   • Must use query design in which the tables are linked - when creating a relationship referential integrity must be enforced
   • After entering all the requirements for the database hit 'run' to generate the query result sheet

2. Reports

   • This is a document usually used as a result of a query - it makes the query look more organised and formal.
   • This makes it easy to get result quickly from a database
   • Use the report wizard to create the report, in which you can select the sources you want to use in the report e.g. - tables and queries

3. Relationships

   • These create links between various tables, using primary keys
   • All fields should be formatted appropriately

4. Merging to Word
