2 Database Structure & Tables 2 Understanding Database Structure A database is like a filing cabinet, except that instead of containing folders, documents, and types of data, a database contains tables (or Objects), records, and fields within those records. The Database contains information in organized tables. Tables can be either self-contained, or share information with other related tables. Open tables in your database to view the records they contain. Creating a Database Tables (or Objects) are database components that look like spreadsheets and contain information arranged in rows and columns. Look through any table (e.g. Clients) to find specific pieces of information, called Records. See Creating Tables, below, and Exploring Table Relationships, page 3. Records contain a complete set of information about something in the table (e.g. a sales executive named William Beckett). Each record contains smaller units of information (e.g. William Beckett s sales territory), called Fields. Creating a Database Using a Template To create a database using a template: click New, and select a template from those displayed. In the pane on the right, select an appropriate file name and save location, and then click Create or Download. The template opens, and all available reports and forms appear in the Navigation pane. Creating a Blank Database 1. Click New Blank Database. Select a file name and save location in the right pane if necessary, then click Create. 2. A default table opens in Datasheet View. Click the first cell in the column and begin entering data, or copy and paste data from another location (e.g. an Excel spreadsheet). Note: If you want to remove the default table, right-click its header tab (e.g. ) and choose Close. Alternatively, click in the top-right corner of the database window. Creating Tables Tables contain data, and are the basis for other database objects such as forms and queries (see Creating a Form, page 4, and Creating a Query, page 5). Creating a Table Each table should contain information about a single subject (e.g. Clients). One field (column) should contain a Primary Key, which you can later use to create relationships with other tables containing a similar field. To create a table in Datasheet View: click the tab, then click Table in the Tables group. A table appears, with the first cell in the field selected. To add a new field to a table: scroll to the last field in the table, click and select a field type from the menu. Note: Alternatively, on the tab, in the Add & Delete group, select a field type to add to the table. Click More Fields for additional options. To rename or move a field: double-click the field header and enter a new name to rename it, or click and drag the field header to move it to another location. To create a table in Design View: Note: In Design View, you first create the table s structure, and then return to Datasheet view to enter data. 1. On the tab, click Table Design in the Tables group. 2. Enter the column names in the Field Name column, then click the cells in the Data Type column and choose the appropriate data formats from the menus. Tip: The Description field can be used to provide additional information about a field, which will appear in the status bar when the cursor is placed in the field. 3. Select the field that will correspond with a similar field in a related table and, on the tab, in the Tools group, click Primary Key (see Understanding the Primary and Foreign Key, page 3). Primary Key field 4. When finished, right-click the table s tab (e.g. ) and choose Database View. Click in the dialog box that opens to save the table. Name the table in the Save As dialog box and click OK. Note: The Primary Key is automatically defined as an AutoNumber ID field if you do not select one, but you can change the Primary Key at anytime. Entering, Editing and Filtering Data Open tables and forms to enter or edit data. Note that after editing a form, the related table will only be updated after it is reopened (see Streamlining Data with Forms, page 4). Entering and Editing Data in a Table or Form To insert or delete a field: in Datasheet View, right-click the field header after the place you want to insert a field and choose Insert Field or Delete Field. To edit default field properties: 1. Right-click the table s tab (e.g. ) and choose Design View. 2. On the tab, click Property Sheet. In the Property Sheet pane on the right, click the field you want to alter, then click, and alter as needed. To enter data in a form: click at the bottom of the form window to open a new record, and then click a blank field. Filtering Data in a Database Object 1. Open a database object (e.g. a table) and click anywhere in the column header for the field that you want to filter. 2. On the tab, click Filter in the Sort & Filter group. To apply a common filter: point to Text Filters, Number Filters or Date Filters and then choose a filter option from the fly-out menu. Enter the necessary value in the dialog box that opens. To apply a filter based on field values: clear the boxes next to the values that you do not want to filter and click OK. Creating Calculated Fields 1. Click and choose Calculated Field, then the type of field you want to create (e.g. Number). 2. In the Expression Builder dialog box, create the calculation you want to use for the field, using the Expression Categories and the Expression Values sections. 3. Click OK, and then name the new field. To modify a calculated field expression: right-click the calculated field header and choose Modify Expression from the menu. Modify the expression as needed in the Expression Builder dialog box and click OK. Copyright 2010 Nevada Learning Series USA Inc.

3 Lookup Fields & Table Relationships 3 Creating a Lookup Field Creating a Lookup Field that displays values a user can choose from helps to make entering data quicker and more accurate. A Lookup Field can be based on either an existing field or a Value List. To Create a Lookup Field based on a table or query field: 1. With a table or query open in Datasheet View, click the empty column header and choose Lookup & Relationship from the menu. 2. In the Lookup Wizard, click. Select the table or query you want to draw the Lookup values from and click. 3. Move the field(s) you want draw the Lookup values from to the Selected Fields section and click. If necessary, click and to change the sort order of the selected fields. Otherwise, click. 4. Click again. Enter a label for the Lookup field and click. To Create a Lookup Field based on a specific list of values: 1. With a table open in Design View, click the cell in the data type column next to the column field you want to create a Lookup field for. Click and choose Lookup Wizard from the menu. 2. In the Lookup Wizard, select I will type in the values that I want and click. Select the Number of Columns, and then enter the values you want users to choose from in the column(s) available. Click. 3. Enter a label for the Lookup field, and check the Limit To List box to restrict entries to the choices in the list, if desired. Click. Exploring Table Relationships Fields from two or more tables can be joined to form relationships, which will then allow you to create more useful reports and queries based on those tables. The most common relationship is one-to-many, in which a single record in one table (e.g. a client record) relates to several records in another table (e.g. several job or order records). Understanding the Primary and Foreign Key The Primary Key is used to define the relationship between one table and another by linking a shared field (e.g. a Client or Employee ID field). Note: Only fields in which each record contains a value, and in which each value is unique, can be used as a Primary Key. The Foreign Key is a field relating to the Primary Key field of another table. In the example of a one-to-many table relationship, you can copy the Primary Key column from the one table and insert it as an additional column in the many table. Note: Tables can contain one or more Primary or Foreign Keys. Similarly, the Foreign Key column can (and likely will) contain duplicate entries (e.g. orders). Creating and Editing Table Relationships Table relationships can be created using the Relationships window. To create a table relationship: 1. On the tab, in the Relationships group, click Relationships. 2. The Show Table dialog box opens if no relationships have been created. If it doesn t open, click Show Table in the Relationships group. Select a table you want to create a relationship for and click. Repeat until all tables have been added, then click. 3. Drag the Primary Key field from the first table to the corresponding field (the desired Foreign Key field) in the second table. 4. In the Edit Relationships dialog box, ensure that the fields displayed are the fields to be used for the relationship. To edit an incorrect field, select it and choose the correct field from the drop-down menu. Click. The relationship between the Clients table and the Design Jobs table. Primary Key field Client Foreign Key field Client Tip: Content in the Primary Key field will likely have multiple corresponding entries in the Foreign Key field, but Foreign Key data should only have one corresponding entry in the Primary Key field. To edit a relationship: in the Relationships window, right-click the line connecting two tables and choose Edit Relationships. Make changes as needed in the Edit Relationships dialog box and click OK. To delete a relationship: in the Relationships window, right-click the line connecting two tables and choose Delete. Click. Using Subdatasheets to View or Edit Related Records When a one-to-many relationship is created between two tables, each record on the one side of the relationship includes a subdatasheet containing related records from the many side. For example, records in a Clients table may have a subdatasheet containing data from an Orders table relating to each client. To view a subdatasheet: click to the left of any record. Note: If you edit a data in a subdatasheet, changes will be reflected in the related table. Click to reveal a subdatasheet containing records from the many table in a one-to-many table relationship. Primary Key field ( Client ) copied to the Design Jobs table to be used as the Foreign Key. To set or change a table s Primary Key: 1. Right-click the table s tab (e.g. ) and choose Design View. 2. Select the field or fields you want to use as the Primary Key (hold CTRL to select multiple fields) and, in the Tools group, click Primary Key. To remove a table s Primary Key: in Primary Key. Copyright 2010 Nevada Learning Series USA Inc. Design View, in the Tools group, click Important: Review the content in subdatasheets to ensure the correct relationship has been constructed.

4 Forms & Reports 4 Streamlining Data Entry with Forms A form is an interface tool used to help simplify the process of viewing and editing table data, and can contain buttons and controls to help perform database tasks. Creating a Form Note: To use fields from more than one table, create a query that contains those fields, and then base the form on that query (see Creating a Query, page 5.) To create a form: 1. In the Navigation pane, click the table or query containing the fields and data you want to include in your form. Then, on the tab, in the Forms group, click Form. The form is displayed in Layout View, allowing you to make changes to form design. 2. Right-click the form s tab and click Save. Name the form in the Save As dialog box and click OK. Click to display the layout of columns and rows in a form. Press ALT+F8 to open the Field List pane. Double-click fields to add them to the form, then drag them to the desired location. Creating a Split Form Split Forms display a set of data in Form View and Datasheet View at the same time, allowing you the benefits of both views. To create a new split form using the Split Form tool: 1. In the Navigation pane, click the table or query containing the data you want to include in the form. Then, on the tab, in the Forms group, click More Forms Split Forms. 2. Right-click the form s tab (e.g. ) and click Save. Name the form in the Save As dialog box and click OK. To convert an existing form into a split form: 1. Right-click the form s tab (e.g. ) and choose Design View. In the Tools group, click Property Sheet (or press ALT+ENTER). 2. Select Form from the drop-down list. On the tab, click Default View. Then, click and choose Split Form from the drop-down list. Editing or Deleting a Form Open forms in Layout View to edit them. Return to Form View to enter data. To add a field to a form: press ALT+F8 to open the Field List pane, and click the form to display columns and rows. Then: To insert a row or column: select the field above or beside the place you want to add a row or column and, in the Rows & Columns group, select the desired option (e.g. Insert Below). To insert a field: select the location on the form, and then double-click the field in the Field List to insert it. To delete a form: with the form closed, click the form name in the Navigation pane and press DELETE. Copyright 2010 Nevada Learning Series USA Inc. Use to navigate between records in a form. Click to create a new entry. Presenting Data with Reports Reports present database information in a printer-friendly format. Like a form, a report contains selected fields from the tables or queries they are based on. Note: To include fields from more than one table, create a query containing those fields and base the report on that query (see Creating a Query, page 5). To create a report: 1. In the Navigation pane, click the table or query containing the data you want to include on your report. Then, on the tab, in the Reports group, click Reports. 2. On the tab, in the Tools group, click Add Existing Fields (or press ALT+F8) to open the Fields List pane. If needed, click and drag field names (e.g. First Name) from the Field List pane to the places on the report you want them displayed, or select fields and press DELETE to remove them. 3. When finished, right-click the report s tab (e.g. ) and click Save. Name the report in the Save As dialog box and click OK. To add design elements to a report: open the report in Design View, and then use the tools in the Controls and Header/Footer groups on the tab. Grouping and Sorting in Reports Grouping content within a report can be useful in highlighting trends and other pertinent info. Perform simple grouping and sorting operations in Layout View. To group or sort a report: 1. Open a report from the Navigation Pane in Layout View (right-click the report in the Navigation pane and choose Layout view). Note: To save space, consider deleting any unwanted columns before grouping. Right-click the desired column and choose Delete Column. 2. Right-click the column you want to group or sort and choose Group On <column name>, or select a Sort option from the menu. Using the Group, Sort, and Total Pane Use the Group, Sort, and Total pane if you want to modify a grouped report or sort more than one field. To display or hide the Group, Sort, and Total pane: on the tab, in the Grouping & Totals group, click Group & Sort. To add a new grouping or sorting level: click or in the Group, Sort, and Total pane. In the new group line that appears, choose one of the fields from the list. Note: To change the new grouping or sorting level, click the drop-down arrow beside the newly added level and select a different field. To change grouping or sorting options: click More on the level you want to change. To change the priority of a grouping or sorting level: select the row in the Group, Sort, and Total pane and click the up or down arrow. To delete a grouping or sorting level: click on the grouping or sorting level. Previewing and Printing Reports To preview a report: 1. Double-click the report in the Navigation pane. On the tab, click Print Preview in the Views group. Click the report in the Navigation pane to return to the previous view. Note: Alternatively, right-click the report and click Print Preview. 2.
