Economic Development Conference

Creating Tables, Queries, Forms, and Reports in a Database

 

 

• GETTING STARTED

• Open the file SC_AC19_CS1-3a_FirstLastName_1.accdb, available for download from the SAM website.
• Save the file as SC_AC19_CS1-3a_FirstLastName_2.accdb by changing the “1” to a “2”.
  • If you do not see the .accdb file extension in the Save As dialog box, do not type it. The program will add the file extension for you automatically.
• To complete this SAM Project, you will also need to download and save the following data files from the SAM website onto your computer:
  • Support_AC19_CS1-3a_Advertisers.xlsx
• Open the _GradingInfoTable table and ensure that your first and last name is displayed as the first record in the table. If the table does not contain your name, delete the file and download a new copy from the SAM website.

• PROJECT STEPS

1. The Economic Development Professional Organization hosts an annual conference for its members, college students, and other interested persons to share new ideas, discuss problems, and brainstorm solutions. You are a conference coordinator responsible for registration.
   
   Create a new table in Datasheet View with the following options:
    
   1. Rename the default primary key ID field to AdvertiserID and change the data type to Short Text. (Hint: AdvertiserID should remain the primary key.)

      Save the table with the name Advertisers and close the table.
2. Use the Import Spreadsheet Wizard to import the data from the Support_AC19_CS1-3a_Advertisers.xlsx file and append to the Advertisers table. Do not save the import steps.
3. Create a new table in Design View with the following options:
   1. Add a field with the name SponsorID and the Short Text data type. Change the field size to 4.

   4. Add a third field with the name Amount and the Currency data type.
      
      Save the table with the name Sponsors and switch to Datasheet View.
4. With the Sponsors table open in Datasheet View, add the record shown in Table 1. Resize the SponsorName field so that the field value is completely visible. Save the changes and close the Sponsors table.
