Microsoft Access 2002 is a powerful relational database software package that makes it easy to create and manage complex databases. With Access, users can create a database quickly. Once the database is created, Access provides all the tools needed to enter and manipulate data. With the help of the Absolute Beginner's Guide, readers are able to quickly start a new database by using the Database Wizard, add and edit database information by using both tables and forms, and manipulate data in a number of tables by using queries and reports. The book is geared for new users of Access, as well as users who are upgrading from a previous version.
