3.0hours

Microsoft Access is a relational database application. Its the perfect tool when you begin to outgrow your data
collection in Excel. With Access you can obtain better collection results by creating user-friendly forms with
rules to protect the validity of your data. You can create queries to analyze and filter your data, and reports that
can be regenerated anytime you need them. Topics for this workshop include database concepts, planning a
database, and a hands-on introduction to tables, queries, forms and reports. This workshop is a prerequisite for
the other Access workshops.

WhatisaDatabase?
Avarietyofdefinitionsexistforadatabase;butessentiallyit'sacollectionofinformation.Afiling
cabinet,aRolodex,alibrarycardcatalog,andeventheInternetarealltypesofdatabases.

Mostoftentheword"database"isusedtodescribeacollectionofrelated"data"(information)stored
oncomputers.Anelectronicdatabaseshouldallowyoutostore,sort,andretrievedata.

YoucancreatesimpledatabasesbycreatingaWordTableoranExcelspreadsheet.Thesecanbeusedto
keepdatasuchasnamesandaddresses.

Forexample,herewehavesimpledatabaseofourpatients:
MedRec# FirstName LastName DOB Doctor
123456 Jack Nimble 06/08/72 Edwards
987654 Jill Pail 08/27/65 Lewis
753951 Mary Bluebell 12/08/51 Edwards

999999 Ken Edwards 5551234
888888 Laura Lang 5554567
777777 Yolanda Lewis 5557890

WhyuseMicrosoftAccess?
MicrosoftAccessisa"relational"databaseapplication.Relationalmeanswecanlinktogethersetsof
data,wecanrelatethedata.Wecankeeptrackofthepatients,thedoctorsandwhenthepatientslast
sawtheirdoctors,whathappenedateachvisitandsoon.Accessallowsustorelateourdata,without
therepetitionthatmayoccuranywhereelse.

InanAccessdatabase,wecancreatebothofthedatasetsandlinkthem.
MedRec# First Last DOB Doctor EmpID# First Last Phone#
123456 Jack Nimble 06/08/72 Edwards 999999 Ken Edwards 5551234
987654 Jill Pail 08/27/65 Lewis 888888 Laura Lang 5554567
753951 Mary Bluebell 12/08/51 Edwards 777777 Yolanda Lewis 5557890

InAccessthedataissavedinTables.AstheTableschange,therestoftheAccessdatabasewillreflect

PlanningtheDatabase

1. InputWhatdatadoIalreadyhaveforthedatabase?
2. OutputWhatinformationdoIwanttogetoutofthedatabase?
3. ProcessWhatdoIneedtodotogetthere?

SometimesithelpstoplanthefinalReportsthatyouwantfromyourdatabasetoseeifyoualreadyhave

DesignRules
OrganizingData
Onceyouhaveanideaofthedatayouwouldliketocollect,youneedtodecidehowmanytablesyou
