 Microsoft Access, also known as Microsoft Office
Access, is a database management
system from Microsoft that combines
the relational Microsoft Jet Database Engine with
a graphical user interface and software-development
tools.
 It is a member of the Microsoft Office site of
applications, included in the Professional and higher
editions or sold separately.
 Microsoft Access stores data in its own format based
on the Access Jet Database Engine. It can also import
or link directly to data stored in other applications and
databases.
6

 A database is a collection of data organized
in a manner that allows access, retrieval, and
use of that data.
 Ex. A Rolodex which keeps track of Names,
Addresses, and Phone Numbers, is a simple
example of a manual database.
 A Database Management System, allows you
to use a computer to create a database.
 With the computer you can (electronically)
create, add, change, and delete data in the
7

 Is known as a desktop database system because its
functions are intended to be run from a single
computer.
 Uses database – a collection of data and objects
related to a particular subject, which is organized and
categorized by tables
 It is a Relational Database Management System
(RDBMS), because it stores information in multiple
related tables and can be treated as a single storage
area and pull information electronically from different
tables in whatever order meets your needs; designed
primarily for home or small business usage.
8

 Previously known as Microsoft
Access, is a database management
system from Microsoft that combines
the relational Microsoft Jet Database
Engine with a graphical user interface
and software-development tools.
9

 Users can create tables, queries, forms and
reports, and connect them together with Macros
.
 Macros in Access can be thought of as a
simplified programming language which you can
use to add functionality to your database. It
contains actions that perform tasks, such as
opening a report, running a query, or closing the
database.
 Access also has report creation features that
can work with any data sources that Access can
“access”.
10

 Other features include: the import and export of data to
many formats including Excel, Outlook, ASCII, dBase,
Paradox, FoxPro, SQL Server, Oracle, ODBC, etc.
 It can perform heterogeneous joins between data sets
stored across different platforms. It is often used by
people downloading data from enterprise level
databases for manipulation, analysis, and reporting
locally.
 Microsoft Access offers parameterized queries. These
queries and Access tables can be referenced from other
programs like VB6 and .NET through DAO or ADO. From
MS Access, VBA can reference parameterized stored
procedures via ADO.
11

 Microsoft Access is a file server-based
database. Unlike client-server relational
database management systems, Microsoft
Access does not implement database
triggers, stored procedures, or transaction
logging.
 It also has the ability to link to data in its
existing location and use it for viewing,
querying, editing, and reporting.

 For the most part, Microsoft Access and Excel
are very similar. They are both databases, and
have similar functions in terms of inputting data.
 However, you would typically use Microsoft
Access when compiling data that is either
categorical in nature or involves more reading.
 A typical project that would be of use in
Microsoft Access is a telephone book or a
directory.
15

 Microsoft Excel typically uses more
numerical data than Microsoft Access, and
is used to show functions between cells.
 As you will see from this Quicktip, Access
does use relationships, but can show
relationships between databases, as well
as cells.
16

 Spreadsheet Software allows users to
add, subtract & perform user defined
calculations on rows & columns of
numbers.
 Spreadsheets are more geared towards
numeric data, whereas Databases work
with Data that contains info. like Names,
Addresses, Soc. Security #’s etc.

 Points to remember and its
definition
 Primary Key

 Tables
 Records
 Fields
 Primary Key
19

 Table
A table is a collection of data about a
particular subject. For Ex. a Movie table
contains info. about movies like Movie No.,
Movie Title, Year Made, Movie Type etc.
 RECORDS
Records are simply the ROWS in
the table.
 FIELDS
Fields are the COLUMNS in the
table.
20

Each COLUMN in the table
is a FIELD
Each ROW in the table
is a RECORD
21

 A RECORD in the MOVIE Table
contains information about a specific
MOVIE.
 Ex. Record Number 003 contains
specific information on the movie
Dancing Duo.
22

 A FIELD contains a specific piece of
information within a RECORD.
 Ex. The Movie Title field contains
specific information about the Title of
the Movie.
23

 The first field in the MOVIE table is the
MOVIE NUMBER. This is a code assigned
by the owner to each MOVIE.
 These numbers are unique; that is no two
movies will be assigned the same number.
 Such a field can be used as a UNIQUE
IDENTIFIER. Ex. Soc-Sec-No.
 This is called the PRIMARY KEY.

 We have learnt what is a Database.
 What is a Database Management System.
 We have learnt that RECORDS are
essentially ROWS in a table.
 FIELDS are essentially COLUMNS in a
table.
 A PRIMARY KEY is simply a field used as
the Unique Identifier.

 Easy to install and use — Access gives data managers a
fully functional, relational database management system in
minutes. Like many other Microsoft applications, Access
contains Wizards that walk you through each step of the way.
The user interface is intuitive; accelerating data information
retrieval.
 Ease to integrate – Access works well with many of the
developing software programs based in Windows. It also can
be used in the front-end as back-end tables with products
like Microsoft SQL Server and non-Microsoft products like
Oracle and Sybase.
61

 NET-friendly – Access is a go-to choice for users
who plan to develop software using .NET; linking
to Access database. Its graphical user interface
also offers easy functionality and set up.
 Widely popular — Microsoft Access is the most
popular desktop database system in the world.
 Saves you money — Microsoft Access is hundreds
of dollars more economical than other larger
systems; offering the same functions and usage.
62

 Convenient storage capacity – A Microsoft
Access database can hold up to 2 GB of
data.
 Multi-user support – About ten users in a
network can use an Access application.
 Importing data — Microsoft Access makes
it easy to import data.
63

 Finite – Microsoft Access is useful for
individual departments or small-to-medium
business sectors. Any sector whose usage
goes beyond 2 GB will hit a wall and
discover limitations.
 Structure Query Language (SQL) — SQL
for MS Access is not as robust as MS SQL
Server or Oracle, to just name a few.
64

 One file — All the information from your
database is saved into one file. This limits
options and how you choose utilize data;
slowing down reports, queries, and forms.
Its performance becomes slow as the user
scales data size. Multimedia data can use
up MS Access limited space quickly.
65

 Static-Friendly — It’s difficult to
publish files a part from static files.
 Multi-user limited — Technical limit is
255 concurrent users, but real world
limit is 10 to 80 (depending on type of
application.
