Creating an Access Application is Simple
You only need
1. Msaccess 97 or 2000 installed on your computer
2. some simple knowledge of data base tables and their properties eg primary keys,relationships among tables and field datatypes
then when you start Msaccess it will prompt you for a name of the database, which will be the container for your database objects eg tables and forms
You need to have an idea of the data tables you want to have in your database, based on the type of information you want to capture
access starts with an empty database window and this is where you create your objects from using appropriate tabs.
you will not take more than five days before you create your first tables ,forms queries and Reports. Later you will learn about macros and modules
You can also look at Sample databases that are shipped with Acess eg NortWind Database
At any time you can make good use of the Help Menu option every thhing is there.
wish you a nice voyage
