•
also known as database
file/s.
organized data in rows

contain fields (column)
and records (row).
Data file – collection of
related records, stored in
any available storage
medium.
RECORD

•
also known as rows.
Contains data values
(name for a person, of a
product, an ID for
student).
a collections of related
fields in a database.
also represent a data
attributes (describing an
entity).
FIELD
•

•
•
also known as a columns
contains a specific
category of data within a
record.
single category of data to
be stored in database.
field name – uniquely
identifies each field.
field size – defines the
maximum of characters a
field can contain.

DATA TYPE
DESCRIPTIONS
Text
store data that is not manipulated arithmetically
Number
store numeric data, arithmetically can be manipulated (integer, decimal –
are available)
Currency
special for numeric data that represents money (output with currency
signs, decimal points and commas.)
Yes/No
store logical data, can only contains one from two-values (often appear as
checkboxes)
Date/Time
store dates and times as values, can be sorted, added, or manipulated (has
several formats to choose from)
Memo
store large block of text, can’t be arithmetically manipulated or compared,
but can be edited and displayed.
Hyperlink
store hyperlinks to web pages, email addresses, or even a files.
Attachment
contains images, documents, other types of files supported by the DBMS
program being used.

Table Design View
Primary Key (in database) – a field, uniquely
identifies each record in a file.
•
•
•
also known as a key field
data (in the field) is unique.
can be used to integrate data in database.
27
DATABASE
6.2
Basic Concept of Database
Primary Key (PK) (in database) – should
follow the listed rules (in order to use it in
database)
•
•
•
Primary Key’s Symbol in
Microsoft Access 2007
PK must contain a value – that is must be declared
(NOT NULL).
PK value must be unique for each record (row).
PK value must no change or become NULL
Benefits of using primary key (in database) ;
• ensuring there’s no duplicate records in
database.
• preventing a NULL value being entered in
unique field.

Foreign Key (in database) – a field in
relational table, that matches primary key
column of another table.
From the image, there are 2 tables. #1
Contact_Samsun.. And #2 is Hostel Info.
Both has been connected, thus makes the
table is a relational table.
•
In Table #1, Contact_Samsun… , field
Matric_Num is the PK , and there are not
Foreign Key in table 1.
•
In Table #2, Hostel Info, field Room Num is
the PK (for that table), and Matric_Num
is the Foreign Key (because it matches
primary key form another table ,Table #1).

Example of Relational Table in

Remember !
A foreign key (sometimes called a
referencing key) is ;
• key used to link two tables
together.
• taking primary key field from
one table and insert it into
the other table (where it
becomes a foreign key ).

Primary Key & Foreign Key
Differences of primary key and foreign key;
primary can contain only unique value while foreign key
may contain duplicate value.
Importance of relationship between the Primary Key
and Foreign Key
● the primary key of one table becomes a foreign of other
table (by matching a foreign key with a primary key, there
is no need to enter data repeatedly)
● making the process (query, form, reports) easier.
● improves data performance by relating smaller tables
into meaningful databases.

DATABASE

Basic Concept of Database
Entity Relationship
a data model that describes data and
information, implemented in a relational
database.

Entity
Relationship
•
something of importance to the
organization.
•
an association between data that's
stored in different record types.
•
entities that the organization wants to
store data about typically becomes a
database table.
•
important because typically describes
an association between two or more
entities.
•
Cardinality
person, place, object, event or
concept in the user environment
• important aspect of the relationship
about which the organization wishes
between record types.
to maintain data.
• number of associations that can exist
“thing” or object that contain data.
