AROUND MS ACCESS
WAYS TO OPEN MS ACCESS
• Access 2016, 2013, 2010, and 2007 create .accdb files, whereas Access
2003 and older versions save databases as .mdb files
• Access is a multiuser database, which means that more than one person can
open an Access database at the same time. The usual way that this works is
that several computers on a network run Access, and all the computer users
can open the same database at the same time.
THE RIBBON
• Create: This tab is for — what else? — making new objects in your database.
• External Data: This tab contains commands for importing and exporting data
and objects, collecting data via e-mail using Outlook, and connecting and
synchronizing with SharePoint.
• Database Tools: The Database Tools tab contains commands for running
macros, creating VBA modules, creating relationships between tables,
documenting or analyzing your database, connecting your database to
SharePoint or SQL Server, and performing other advanced tasks
CREATING, DELETING, RENAMING, COPYING,
AND PRINTING OBJECTS
• Creating an object: Click the appropriate button on the Create tab of the
Ribbon. You usually see options to create the object by running a wizard that
steps you through the process or by using Design view — a window with
settings for designing the object
• Deleting an object: Select the object in the Navigation Pane, and press the
Delete key. Simple enough! Clicking the Delete button on the Home tab of the
Ribbon works, too, as does right-clicking the object and then choosing Delete
from the contextual menu. Access asks whether you’re really, truly sure before
blowing the object away. Just remember that when you delete a table, you
delete all its data, too.
CREATING, DELETING, RENAMING, COPYING,
AND PRINTING OBJECTS
• Renaming an object: : Click the name of the object and press F2, or right click the
name and choose Rename from the contextual menu. Either way, a box appears
around the object’s name. Type a new name, and Press Enter. Press Esc if you
change your mind.
• Copying an object: Select the object you want to copy, press Ctrl+C, move your
cursor to where you want to create the copy, and press Ctrl+V. Access displays a
Paste As dialog box, asking what name to use for the copy. Type a name, and
click OK. When you’re creating a form or report, modifying a copy of an
existing report is faster than starting a new one from scratch.
CREATING, DELETING, RENAMING, COPYING,
AND PRINTING OBJECTS
• Printing an object: Select or open the object you want to print and then press
Ctrl+P. Alternatively, click the File tab on the Ribbon to display Backstage View,
click Print, and choose one of the following options:
• Quick Print (to use the existing printer settings), Print (to select printersettings)
• Print Preview (to see what you’re about to print beforewasting paper on it).
