Access Database for CIT12 Please use speaker notes for additional information! First open Access, when the screen comes up asking if you want to create a new database click that you want to create a Blank Access Database. Select the directory/folder where you want to save the database and give it a name. I called this database asgn1.mdb. Click on create. Select design to design a new table. Notice that tables is selected. Selecting design brought up this screen where we can design the file/table within the database asgn1.mdb. Notice that at this point, the table does not have a name. It will be named when you save the design. I have now entered the first field which is called isbn. Notice that it is a text field and that I made the field size 13 which will hold the largest ISBN number that I have. Now I have entered the next field which I am naming title. It is also a text field and I decided that 35 was big enough to hold the titles I was entering. I made the year field a number and specifically an integer. I do not have to specify the number of characters because integer has a specific number of characters. Before I leave, I establish a key for the record - isbn is my key. To do this I click on isbn and then click on the key icon. When you try to close this screen, it asks if you want to save and then prompts you for a table name. I entered booklist and clicked OK. I now have a table in my database. When I clicked on the booklist table, this screen came up for me to do data entry. Now I want to design a query. Notice that I have high lighted Queries and now I will click on design. The query screen comes up and shows the tables I have available to query. The only one that I have is booklist, so I will click on add. I can double click on each of the fields in booklist that I want to see in my query and they will move to the line below. In this case, I decided to see all of the fields so I double clicked on them all. When I click on the view icon, I will see the selected records. I can click on the design icon to go back into design mode. The intersetion of Criteria: and topic is where I am entering my criteria. I want all records where the topic is equal to Oracle.
