In this module we will be introduced to creating, adding, and querying database objects. We will be using Microsoft Access, © Microsoft Simple Query Wizard and Design View. Both of these tools will allow students to manipulate the objects and their contents for summarization and knowledge generation. Similar to the previous chapter, both theoretical knowledge, as well as the hands on database management projects, will be explored. These will prepare the student to not only utilize these tools in the Microsoft Access database software, but will also to be able to translate this knowledge to other database design software commonly used in industry.
